Dr. Ahn Tho and Dr. Stephen Winter with Vietnamese<br />

<strong>Global</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Scholars in Norwalk Hospital in 2019<br />

Vietnamese Spirit of<br />

Creativity<br />

Through the success of the whole response team, I,<br />

the only female doctor on the team, have gained the<br />

love and support of my team and the Vietnamese<br />

population as well as recognition by Forbes Magazine<br />

as one of the most inspiring women of the year. It is a<br />

great honor and joy. However, there are many women<br />

who have been contributing quietly to this fight:<br />

colleagues, wives, mothers at home, business women,<br />

soldiers, frontline workers, and so on, many of whom<br />

have not been recognized.<br />

The Forbes honor has partly proved the achievements<br />

of the fight against COVID-19 in Vietnam up to now. We<br />

still encounter many challenges ahead and numerous<br />

tasks must be completed to hold our outstanding<br />

accomplishment steady.<br />
