KUWAIT: Minister of Health Sheikh Dr Basel Humoud Al-Sabah briefed Cabinet ministers on the latest health situation in Kuwait in terms of statistics of the coronavirus pandemic, and the decline in COVID-19 infections to “the lowest level” reaching 0.03 percent. He said that the recovery rate rose to 99.09 percent, thanks to Allah Almighty and the high rate of vaccination given to the public.

Furthermore, the Cabinet examined a recommendation regarding a report that the Environment Public Authority submitted on Kuwait’s commitment to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. It was notified, through a visual presentation made by the National Committee for Ozone Affairs and Climate Change, about the general framework of Kuwait’s low-carbon strategy 2050, and the document of national contributions 2025-2035.

The Cabinet assigned the Ministry of Electricity and Water, the Ministry of Public Works, the Public Authority for Agricultural Affairs and Fish Resources, the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation and its subsidiaries to provide the EPA with a report on the measures that each of these parties will take to reduce carbon emissions, in a manner that ensures Kuwait’s commitment to international agreements and obligations.
