(Source: nhandan.vn)Hanoi (VNA) – The Help Me! project, a member of the National
Technology Centre for Prevention and Control, has been recently
launched, connecting many IT engineers and over 150 volunteers in Vietnam and
around the world to support Vietnamese people affected by the COVID-19
pandemic.
From the end of July, Ho Chi Minh City has allowed asymptomatic
patients to be quarantined at home. Realising the urgent need of tens of
thousands of patients in need of telemedicine support as well as the pressure facing
the medical force, the Help Me! project was born to serve the community for free.
The project not only responds to people’s need for quick
support and advice, but also pioneers in applying technology to connect people
who “can help” with those who
“need help”.
The volunteers can provide support around the clock. Bringing
into full play the time and expertise of consulting across Vietnam
will significantly reduce the load on the national health system in general, as
well as medical facilities in pandemic-hit areas in particular.
The project is still calling on volunteers who are doctors,
medical professionals of all specialties and ages across the country to join
its work./.
