Eight more patients have been given all-clear from coronavirus following between three and five negative Covid-19 tests, raising the total cured cases in Da Nang to 96 till date, the municipal Department of Health said.   

The recovered people left the Hoa Vang Field Hospital on Thursday afternoon.

The recovered people, consisting of 7 from Da Nang and the other one from Quang Nam Province, left the Hoa Vang Field Hospital on Thursday afternoon after they had made a full recovery from the illness.

Dr Nguyen Dai Vinh, Director of the Hoa Vang District-based Medical Station, said the cured patients are no longer contagious as they no longer suffer from fever, cough and shortness of breath.

The hospital used its specialised vehicle to carry the recovered people home. The close monitoring of these patients will be put in place during their 14-day self- quarantine period at their places of residence following the Health Ministry’s guidelines after they are back in their own home.
