Guyana’s Infectious Disease Hospital is expected to receive a boost in capacity with the installation of an oxygen plant through a donation.
The oxygen plant which has already been sourced but is yet to arrive in Guyana due to logistics challenges is being donated to the facility through the Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS) and Sewa Guyana International.
During a joint press conference yesterday, it was revealed that the plant costs approximately US$150,000. Coordinator of the HSS, Ravi Dev stated that the effort to source and donate an oxygen plant to the Ministry of Health and by extension, the infectious disease facility at Liliendaal came after numerous discussions were held with the ministry.
