Health official in Binh Duong dismissed for neglecting COVID-19 prevention and control
The Director of Binh Duong Provincial Health Department on August 23 signed a decision to appoint Huynh Minh Chin, Director of the Health Center of Bau Bang district, to the post of Director of the Health Center of Tan Uyen town.
Under the decision, Doctor Huynh Minh Chin has replaced Doctor Nguyen Van Dang Tam, who has recently dismissed for his neglect of his duties in the local anti-pandemic campaign.
Huynh Minh Chin is an experienced doctor, who has made significant contributions to the COVID-19 prevention and combat at the health center of Bau Bang district. He efficiently managed the quarantine facility and supported Ho Chi Minh City in quarantining guest workers returning from foreign countries.
Meanwhile, Nguyen Van Dang failed to have curbed the number of COVID-19 infections in Tan Uyen while he served as the Director of the Health Center of the town.
He also failed to conduct the local testing campaign as well as to manage concentrated quarantine zones. His irresponsibility has led to a complicated COVID-19 situation in the locality.
