INTERVIEW: Humanity is not handling coronavirus pandemic very well, says health care investment chief Helmut Schuehsler

And there is the small issue of the most significant health challenge humanity has faced in over a century - the coronavirus pandemic, which has changed the economic fundamentals of the medical industry beyond recognition in the space of a few months.. As a professional investor with more than 30 years' experience in health care, he holds firm views on the way the international community has responded to the pandemic crisis.. The first phase of the response - providing critical health care and devices - is coming together," Schuehsler said.. Fertility treatment, for example, via the Bourn Hall clinic in Dubai, saw a sharp decline in business in April, Schuehsler said, though that has recovered "a bit" last month.. About four years ago, he began to look at Saudi Arabia, the biggest health market in the Middle East.. Schuehsler has expanded from the UAE to the Kingdom via the Manzil Healthcare Services brand in Riyadh and the Cambridge Medical business in Dhahran.. The medical devices business recently signed a partnership deal with the well-known Olayan Group to expand distribution in the Kingdom.. We run our business in the Middle East in the exactly same way we would have run it
