Since January 2020 - the start of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, Vietnam has closely monitored the situation and installed a series of proactive, comprehensive measures to combat the spread of the virus within the country and prepare its public health facilities.

Currently, the outbreak cluster is not under-controlled; Saigon has been on social isolation for almost 3 months straight, Vietnam is closed for traveling and tourism. But, there are over 100.000 foreigners in Vietnam. We are believed that their biggest concern is healthcare, especially tourists.

We are The Fackin' English Zone. We are here to share some tips and suggestions for foreigners about Vietnam healthcare. We hope it will help in this critical situation!

Let's get started!


In 2020, Vietnam ranked one of the safest countries globally for travelers during the pandemic outbreak over the world. Vietnam has kept doing great work until now. However, it always pays to be prepared and got rewards.

Visitors or Foreigners in Vietnam are encouraged to take sensible precautions against COVID-19 that follow The World Health Organization's guidance outlines these basic practices to keep safe as below.

Beginning with rule number 1, we should maintain social distancing - "No going out without emergency." Followed the government announcement, in Saigon, people are not allowed to go out without permission. The statement is applied in Hanoi and Mekong Delta areas, too.

Then, personal health safe should keep this tip as a habit. Washing hands regularly with soap and running water. Moreover, the suggestion uses an alcohol-based hand sanitizer to spray your hands as often as possible. Besides, cleaning the house with alcohol-based liquid is highly recommended.

The most important is mask-on, as always. To ensure masks cover the nose and mouth carefully. Highly required to use a face mask to go out or contact people around to avoid the spread of the virus if mindlessly cough or sneeze in the public area. On the other hand, avoid touching the mask after using it, and wash your hands after removing it.

Last but not least, we should get fully vaccinated. The Vietnam government is open to getting free vaccines for all citizens to reach herd immunity soon. There are many places for public vaccination. Foreigners can register via Covid-19 Vaccine Portal (https://tiemchungcovid19.gov.vn/portal) or write in paperwork by the leader of sub-quarter. At present, there is 33,623,028 vaccinated dose in Vietnam. Over 90% of citizens are done with the first dose.

 

The quality of hospitals and healthcare is one of the most concern for foreigners. Most of Vietnam's private hospitals, especially the most highly regarded ones, are usually centered in Hanoi and Saigon. The Fackin’ English Zone included hospitals and trustworthy healthcare companies in both cities recommended for ex-pats. Check out at https://bitly.com.vn/c7xtb6 and https://bitly.com.vn/vqq9tq.

Further information, there are some hotline phone-number for asking support during the emergency. Let’s call 1022, 028.3824.9000

Along the way, it is going to be a long battle for Vietnam, and the on-fire situation Saigon, especially for medical staff, but by pulling together, they expect to succeed. We are on the way to win the fight against the pandemic. Stay calm – We will win!
