Reprimanding the Deputy Director of the hospital for organizing his child's wedding during the epidemic season

According to Mr. Chau, the Department of Health has properly implemented the review and disciplinary procedures for civil servants, based on a thorough assessment of the incident verification reports of the authorities, the hospital and Mr. Hung's statement.

Previously, at noon on March 31, Ha Tinh people were excited to see dozens of cars carrying a bride on the Ho Chi Minh trail, passing through Huong Khe district, Ha Tinh province. This wedding procession was identified as belonging to Mr. Le Anh Hung's family.

Public opinion is outraged because Mr. Hung's family is said to have ignored the directives of the Government and Ha Tinh province in preventing and fighting the Covid-19 epidemic.

Upon receiving information reported by the press, the People's Committee of Ha Tinh province requested the Department of Health to temporarily suspend Mr. Le Anh Hung from work and consider handling his responsibility for violating regulations on Covid-19 prevention and control.

Mr. Hung then explained that his family only organized a ceremony to welcome their daughter-in-law to the family home according to traditional customs. His family did not set up a tent, did not invite guests, but only prepared a meal for 9 people to attend.

According to Mr. Hung, he reported to the Party Committee, People's Committee, and the Commune Health Station where his family resided and received approval. He also asked his daughter-in-law and son-in-law to go to the commune health station to declare their health and complete home quarantine procedures.

Talking about the 20 cars that took the wedding procession, including 12-seat cars, he said that those were cars of friends who accompanied the photo crew and did not go into the house.
