The 38-year-old woman hails from Lang Son province and works for Hosiden Vietnam, an electronic parts supplier at Quang Chau industrial park.

She tested positive for the SARS-CoV-2 virus on May 18 and was immediately transferred to the Bac Giang general hospital for treatment.

Since hospitalization, her health deteriorated and doctors decided to transfer the patient to the National Hospital for Tropical Diseases in Hanoi for further examination.

However, she died on the way to Hanoi on May 24.

The patient was diagnosed with septic shock and severe pneumonia caused by COVID-19.

Hosiden Vietnam is the epicenter of the country’s fourth COVID-19 wave that broke out in late April. Hundreds of cases have been detected closely linked to the outbreak at the company.

The Ministry of Health (MoH) later confirmed the fatality.

Earlier in the morning, the MoH announced the eighth COVID-19 death during the fourth wave and also the 43rd death since last year.
