Health situation in Vietnam

When the dangerous disease, very high risk of death as influenza A/H5N1, A/H1N1, diarrhea ... be quiet, the disease hand-foot-mouth movement is extremely complex, but some the morbidity and mortality mainly in the South.

Health Ministry statistics show that from this year, in 50 provinces have recorded nearly three thousand people were hand-foot-mouth disease, with over 70 deaths, far exceeding the incidence and mortality in patients in two in 2009 and 2010 combined.
Notably, if the influenza A/H5N1 lasted from 2003 to now, the country also has over 60 deaths; or A/H1N1 influenza pandemic raging in 2 years from 2009 to 2010 also makes not to the 40 deaths, the number of deaths due to disease hand-foot-mouth caused to people in 8 months is indeed alarming and frightening.

Not only that, recently, malaria in HCM City also strongly increase the number of people infected, with dozens of cases require hospitalization. This is unusual because the epidemiological investigation in our country so far, malaria is mainly circulated in the Central Highlands and some central provinces.
In contrast to the northern mountainous province, during the recent anthrax spread from cattle to humans has been re-exported, with more than 30 such cases registered

The data on the morbidity and mortality due to disease hand-foot-mouth fever, malaria, anthrax and dengue fever tends to rise and complicated changes have made people panic, and agencies function, local government and become suddenly confused.
At this point, managers and health professionals have not given a reasonable explanation about the cause of many disease outbreaks suddenly intense.

Certainly can not deny many ordinary diseases, not new that many people with time due to the subjective psychological, neglect; forecasting epidemic inaccurate lack of proactive and aggressive in disease prevention by health authorities, local authorities and many citizens.
Obviously, to the outbreak of disease on strong, with high mortality, the greatest responsibility of the health sector and local governments.

Forecast in the last months of 2011, the situation of human infectious diseases will continue to increase and more complicated because of the rule from September to November is the peak of the epidemic, and hand-foot-mouth fever hemorrhage.
Moreover, the rainy season began in stressful periods, meaning that many other infectious diseases in humans will likely break
