Hanoi’s Covid-19 outbreak might peak in two more weeks and the city’s healthcare system could be overloaded without proper preparation, the capital city’s chairman has cautioned.

 

Addressing a city meeting Sunday, chairman Chu Ngoc Anh cited health experts as estimating the outbreak in Hanoi would reach its peak in the next two weeks.

 

The number of daily cases in the city crossed 10,000 on Saturday and "with the fast spread of infections in the past few days, it is possible that the Omicron strain has dominated Covid-19 cases in Hanoi," Anh said, adding that the city was speeding up the gene sequencing process to make an evaluation.
