Chinese doctors arrive to help fight Covid-19 in Angola



A group of Chinese doctors, nurses and university professors, who worked on the first line of combat against Covid-19 in Wuhan, the epicentre of the disease in the world, since December 2019, is in Angola to exchange experience with the local professionals.

The contingent, which arrived in the country Wednesday for 15 days of intense activity, is made up of specialists in otolaryngology, intensive medicine, internal medicine, epidemiology, infectiology, traditional medicine and laboratory and hospital infection management technicians.

The professionals are in Angola as part of the existing solidarity and cooperation between the two governments to help fight the pandemic. In this context, the Angolan government has already benefited from China, among others, with biosafety materials and laboratories, with the right to assembly them.

During their stay in the African country, the specialists from the Asian giant will provide training on clinical approaches to patients with Covid-19, aimed at Angolan professionals who are stationed in Covid-19's treatment reference hospitals.

"We have reached a stage of the disease curve. We have patients in more advanced stages. Therefore, nothing better than exchanging experience in laboratories and hospitals for a better approach to patients," said the State Secretary for Public Health, Francos Mufinda, while welcoming the Chinese experts at the 4 de Fevereiro International Airport.
