Tunisia-Tunisia hails cooperation with China’s in fighting COVID-19

Tunisian health minister  Abdelatif Mekki commended the collaboration between Tunisia and China in the fight against the COVID-19.

In an interview with Chinese news agency Xinhua, Mekki said ” the Tunisia-China cooperation “was one of Tunisia’s best experiences in terms of cooperation with foreign countries to cope with the spread of the virus.”

He emphasised that the Tunisia-China medical cooperation “is not occasional, but dates back to decades.”

The Chinese medical teams have provided health screening services for more than 5.7 million Tunisian patients, medical treatment for over 880,000 patients in Tunisian hospitals, and 320,000 surgical interventions, he told Xinhua.

“Tunisia is among the countries that have recorded a low number of confirmed cases of COVID-19,” Mekki said.
