AKIPRESS.COM - The Delegation of the European Union in Tajikistan together with UNICEF Tajikistan and Ministry of Health and Social Protection are finalising the distribution of the first 24.7 tons delivered as part of the European Union's contribution to Tajikistan's emergency COVID-19 response.
The distribution of personal protective equipment more specifically includes thermometers, protective overalls, and N95/FFP type masks that will be delivered to 153 prioritised hospitals all across the country.
The list of hospitals has been identified by the Ministry of Health and Social Protection and has been drawn up according to urgent needs, available stocks and the principle of non-duplication of support from other donors.
