The Hanoi Center for Disease Control (CDC) is responsible for plans to respond to specific epidemic situations and for providing guidance on epidemic prevention and environmental sanitation at venues where funeral honors are held and at hotels where delegates and foreign guests are staying.
Hospitals in the city have also been prepared with personnel and emergency teams to respond to medical situations during the funeral of General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong.
The Hanoi Emergency Center 115 has three emergency teams on duty around the clock, ready to take action when needed.
Medical centers in Hai Ba Trung, Cau Giay, and Dong Anh districts coordinated with Hanoi CDC for rigorous epidemic surveillance and proactively detected local outbreaks to treat and control them during the funeral.
