Guyana is set to receive US$1.8 million from The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria to assist with managing COVID-19 in the country.
This was disclosed by Health Minister Dr Frank Anthony yesterday during his daily COVID-19 update where he stated that Guyana has been successful in its application for funding from the Global Fund which he noted has been one of the traditional partners in health.
“We started that application about a month ago and we have put it in and as of two days ago Guyana has been successful. They have written to us acknowledging that our proposal has been very successful and so they will be funding us for the things that we requested,” Anthony informed.
