Minister of Health from Nabatieh: We’ve succeeded in containing Covid-19, medicine crisis coming to an end soon

NNA - Caretaker Minister of Public Health, Dr. Hamad Hassan, on Friday affirmed that the medicine shortage crisis in Lebanese markets was on its way to a solution. “We will not allow this issue to tamper with our joy conquering the Coronavirus pandemic,” Hassan added, promising an end to the medicine crisis by the end of this week. 

Minister Hassan's words came during his inauguration of a celebration held by "Hezbollah" in Nabatieh in honor of "those who sacrificed in the battle against Covid-19.”

“During my meeting with a World Bank delegation, which included directors from the Middle East and North Africa, as well as some senior officials, they felicitated Lebanon's Ministry of Public Health for having done well confronting the Coronavirus pandemic and building herd immunity against it,” Hassan said.
