As Việt Nam battles the fourth wave of COVID-19 pandemic lingering since late April, much of the country's resources have been streamlined to treat infected people, limit transmissions and accelerate the national vaccination campaign.

While Trương Thị Hồng Hà was busy in a field hospital as a volunteer psychology consultant for COVID-19 patients, her husband Ngô Xuân Điệp was at home working on the ‘Vaccine for Mental Health’ programme, which provides online mental healthcare.

More than 200 mobile medical groups in HCM City’s Thủ Đức city are making a major difference in providing medical care to 8,000 - 9,000 COVID-19 patients at home.

While witnessing a slight decrease in the number of transmissions, the capital Hà Nội again topped the list, for the tenth consecutive day, with 1,920 new cases.
