The three-day event, the first one held in Vietnam, attracts the participation
of 1,500 delegates who are experts, doctors and researchers in infection control
from 31 nations over the world.
The biennial congress aims to create a forum for participants to discuss and get
updates on this field.
At this year’s event, delegates are expected to exchange opinions on 117
scientific reports with the focus on infection at hospitals, infectious
diseases, antibiotic resistance, environmental sanitation, and infection
prevention measures.
Speaking at the congress, Director of the Health Ministry’s Medical Examination
and Treatment Department Luong Ngoc Khue stated that safety for patients and
infection control at health clinics are among top priorities of countries,
including Vietnam.
However, this is also a big challenge amid outbreaks of new diseases as well as
familiar ones, and the spreading of multidrug and antibiotic resistant bacteria.
Over the past years, the Vietnamese Health Ministry has carried out a lot of
policies and action programmes to intensify infection control at hospitals, and
gained some achievements such as building an infection control system from the
Health Ministry to health clinics and controlling many diseases likes SARS,
avian flu A/H1N1 and measles, he added.
