Ministry gets donation of drug to treat COVID-19

ANSA McAl Trading Limited yesterday donated 100 vials of remdesivir to the Ministry of Health as the minister had reported that the drug has been effective in the treatment of COVID-19 patients in Guyana.

The handing over ceremony was held at the Ministry of Health’s offices on Brickdam where the company’s Managing Director, Troy Cadogan, said that the donation of the drug will assist the government in the fight against COVID-19.

According to Cadogan, a few of the company’s suppliers reached out and informed them of the drug which seems to have been aiding in the fight against COVID-19 across the world.
