Vietnamese-owned company presents 600 COVID-19 test kits to Moldova
Hanoi (VNA) - Farmacia Orient, a Vietnamese-owned company, has presented 600
made-in-Germany COVID-19 test kits to the National Public Health Agency of
Moldova.
A
representative from the firm said the pandemic is spreading in almost all
countries around the world, including Moldova. The number of infection
cases in the eastern European country is increasing day by day.
According
to the Moldovan government's estimate, as of May 2020, more than 30,000 people
of the country’s total 3 million might be infected with the novel coronavirus
SARS-CoV-2.
Given
that situation, Farmacia Orient wants to contribute its efforts in helping the
local government, hospitals and health facilities to cope with COVID-19 by
donating the test kits.
Preventive
measures applied by the Moldovan government, especially quarantine solutions,
have been proving effective, according to the company.
For
their part, Moldovan authorities and representatives of the National Public
Health Agency thanked the Vietnamese firm for its practical support, which they
said, has helped reinforce local trust in winning the fight against COVID-19./.
