This morning, the European Union and the Pan-American Health Organization handed over 2 vehicles to the Ministry of Health.
The donation is part of a 4-year project where PAHO/WHO, the EU, and the Government of Belize will be working to improve the delivery of medical services at hospitals country-wide and especially in times of natural disasters, such as hurricanes.
The goal is to ensure that even in those times of extreme emergencies, the medical facilities will still be able to look after Belizeans in need of medical attention.
According to the Minister of Health, one of the vehicles is suited for the transportation of pharmaceuticals countrywide, and at today's handing over ceremony, both he and the PAHO representative spoke with the press about the donations:
