Three days ago, a woman in Loc Nam commune, Bao Lam district, was sleeping when she heard a baby crying in her backyard. Upon checking, she discovered the baby was purple, with the umbilical cord still uncut, lying in a nylon bag.
"The baby was taken to the emergency room in a state of severe respiratory failure with pneumonia. Currently, the baby's health has improved. However, care is difficult because the baby only weighs 1.2 kg," said Mr. Thanh.
Local authorities have announced to find the boy's relatives to clarify.
