Focus on propagating to candidates not to eat foods of unknown origin, not ensuring food safety and hygiene before and during the exam.

At the same time, each examination council will be assigned 1 doctor and 1 nurse, equipped with emergency medicine and necessary specialized equipment to examine, provide first aid and emergency care to teachers, students and staff on duty when there are health problems.

Assign district general hospitals to prepare ambulances, 2-3 hospital beds and other conditions to be on standby, provide emergency care to patients at the unit and mobilize timely response when situations arise. Provide instructions on COVID-19 epidemic prevention measures to the examination council and candidates. The Provincial Center for Disease Control arranges mobile teams to prevent and control the epidemic to be ready to support when requested."
