The U.K. coronavirus variant seems to be causing lung damage faster than previous strains, according to preliminary patient reports in northern Hai Duong Province.
Nguyen Trung Cap, deputy director of the National Hospital for Tropical Diseases, said most of the patients in Hai Duong did not have noticeable symptoms, making it difficult to determine the exact time of exposure. Cap and his colleagues were sent by the Ministry of Health to Hai Duong, Vietnam s biggest Covid-19 hotspot at present, to work at Chi Linh Town s Field Hospital 1, where 165 patients are being treated.
