Previously, on the evening of May 3, on the social network Face.book, a video was circulated recording a man taking a bo.y with a traffic acciden.t due to a collision with a homemade 3-wheeler to the hospital, but was asked by medical staff to pay enough advance hospital fees before receiving emergency treatment. The information was later determined to have occurred at Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital, the man who took the bab.y to the emergency room in the video was Mr. H.T.T. (born in 1989; living in Nam Dinh City).

According to Mr. T., at about 15:50 on May 3, while working in Vu Ban district (he works as a refrigeration), he heard a traffic collision, he ran out and saw that a chil.d was in a traffic acciden.t due to a collision with a homemade 3-wheeler, so he immediately took him to the hospital.

When she arrived at Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital, she was preliminarily examined by a doctor and asked to pay an advance payment of 2 million VND for hospital fees. However, Mr. T. only brought 500 thousand VND, so he was refused emergency treatment.

Although he explained that he was a passerby to help, did not bring enough mone.y, his parents were on their way, but the staff still refused, causing him to take out his phone to record the incident. After 10 minutes, the bab.y was taken to the emergency room.

It is known that the situation of the bo.y in the above traffic acciden.t is also difficult. In a temporary rented hostel for 800,000 VND/month, where 6 people are crowded to live through the day, the family of the 4-year-old bo.y in distress is struggling to overcome the incident.

Inside the house, the most valuable assets are probably only two old motorcycles, bicycles and cabinets, a set of old wooden tables and chairs that have been rickety for a long time, and some basic items. In the corner of the tiny kitchen, the old brick floor, the variegated walls, the eldest son in the house, who is only in grade 9, is still working hard to cook rice to take care of the children while his parents are away from home to take care of bab.y T.A. who has just died at the National Children's Hospital.

According to Ms. Bui Thi Tinh - T.A.'s grandmother - it is known that her family has four school-age siblings, including two children in high school, one in high school and the youngest chil.d T.A is only 4 years old.

The whole family moved from Tuyen Quang to Nam Dinh to live from the time of the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic. Initially, the family only planned to go back to his wife's hometown to play, but because they were stuck due to the epidemic, their children were unfinished in school, so they had to stay. After the old hostel was seriously damaged, from February 2024, 6 people moved to their current residence.
