Hanoi (VNA) - Students and lectures at the University of Science and Technology under Da Nang University have created a mobile cabin to transport patients with COVID-19 in quarantine areas.
The cabin is equipped similarly to a negative pressure chamber with disinfectant spray equipment, oxygen tank and warning lights. The device has wheels so people can move it easily by using an electric scooter or just pulling it.

The cabin is made within one month at the request of the Lien Chieu district Medical Centre, aiming to serve the transportation needs of patients suspected or infected with COVID-19 within the hospital. It was handed over to the centre on July 1.
Le Van Sy, director of the centre said that once it is put into use, the device will help facilitate the transportation of patients suspected of having COVID-19 from quarantine areas to wards for clinical examination, as well as from the wards where they are detected to the concentrated quarantine areas. It helps prevent the spread of COVID-19 and cross-contamination during travelling.
Earlier, lecturers and students of the University of Technology (Da Nang University) have also invented many products to serve the community in the prevention and control of COVID-19./.
