HARARE, MAY 21 (BRNN/APP/DNA):Zimbabwe’s Cabinet has approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between China and Zimbabwe on paired hospital cooperation, Zimbabwean Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Jenfan Muswere said Tuesday.
Addressing a post-Cabinet media briefing, Muswere said the MoU will establish a cooperative relationship in respiratory and critical care medicine between Zimbabwe’s Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals and China’s Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital.
“The objective is to strengthen the construction of respiratory and critical care medicine facilities in Zimbabwe and improve local capacity for the prevention, control, diagnosis, and treatment of COVID-19, as well as airway management and respiratory support for critical patients,” Muswere said.
Over the decades, China and Zimbabwe have achieved fruitful cooperation in the health sector. A total of 22 Chinese medical teams have been dispatched to Zimbabwe, playing an important role in boosting the country’s health services.
