Nguyen Tat Thanh University assigned 50 more students to participate in the fight against the epidemic

NTTU – Facing the complicated situation of the Covid-19 epidemic and the shortage of medical human resources, Nguyen Tat Thanh University continues to assign 50 students in the fields of Preventive Medicine, General Medicine, and Nursing to support for the isolation areas, the health centers of the districts to carry out the anti-epidemic work. These 50 students are on the list of 91 students registered to participate in the anti-epidemic of the University and have been trained in necessary skills.

Students participating in the fight against the epidemic performed data entry, sample collection, etc.

This is the second batch of students from the Health major of Nguyen Tat Thanh University. In addition to performing monitoring, data entry, support for temperature measurement and medical declaration in isolation areas of districts, there are a number of students participating directly in areas that are currently the epicenter of the epidemic such as Go Vap district. .

“Although I do not have much practical experience, with the spirit of a health worker, I and my friends are ready to volunteer on the front lines to support brothers, sisters, doctors and the epidemic prevention team. Hopefully the epidemic will end soon to bring the country back to a new normal.”

Dr. Tran Ai Cam, President of the University shared: “Among the students participating in the fight against the epidemic this time, some are only in 2nd and 3rd years without much practical experience. However, this did not make them falter, on the contrary, they entered the fight against the epidemic with the same attitude as fighting the enemy, confident and full of enthusiasm. You are a wonderful image for young generations to follow, you are the inspiration for a beautiful and useful life for many friends of your age. I praised the dedication of “white shirt soldiers” – future medical workers who have always moved forward. Hope you all stay strong, always take care of yourself so that you have enough health to take care of the community. Together we will soon defeat the pandemic.“
