Guyana is among Caribbean countries which will benefit from critically needed personal protective equipment (PPE) under a CDB programme.
A release yesterday from the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) said that PPE is on its way to medical workers on the front lines of the Caribbean’s COVID-19 pandemic response.
It said that on Wednesday, the CDB and the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA) took delivery of the majority of US$3 million worth of PPE at the Port of Bridgetown in Barbados. CDB procured the equipment with concessional resources through the Bank’s Special Development Fund.
