Health cooperation between the two countries has developed well over the past 25 years and the partnership with the US CDC is extremely important, she said. The proposal was made by the Acting Minister of Health Đào Hồng Lan on Tuesday afternoon during a working session with Eric Dziuban, Vietnam Country Director of US CDC.
