As known, in 2010, epidemics in Vietnam also increased over the same period the previous year. Forecast in 2010, the risk of influenza A/H5N1 in humans can occur because the situation on bird flu also complicated. The risk of complications from type 2 virus (influenza A/H1N1 and influenza A/H5N1 virus) are very close and become major concerns. In addition, cholera is also complicated and can break out in summer.

The conference took place in two days (17-18/6), with the participation of health professionals and doctors from five countries are Vietnam, the United States, Laos, Thailand and Cambodia.

The discussion at the conference focused on two main themes: Implementing the International Health Charter (IHR) with the recognition and exchange information on infectious disease in the region, the challenges and successes when Charter Medical is the international drug counterfeit and poor quality drugs mainly for infectious diseases. /.
