According to Dr. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Nga - Deputy Head of the Burn and Orthopedics Department of Children's Hospital 2, in just 2 weeks, the Department has received 3 consecutive pediatric patients related to the act of making fireworks. Every year, Children's Hospital 2 regularly receives and treats pediatric patients related to fireworks, especially during holidays and Tet.

To prevent accidents caused by fireworks, Dr. Ngoc Nga recommends that families and schools regularly remind children to absolutely not use explosives or mix chemicals to make fireworks, especially for children who are at an age of curiosity and discovery.

At the same time, educate children to understand the level of danger caused by fireworks such as causing fire, explosion, injury, disability, and even death.
