Grant Description

On August 2, 2017, a team of medical specialists from China was dispatched to São Tomé and Príncipe.

This was the first Chinese medical team to be dispatched to São Tomé and Príncipe since the resumption of diplomatic ties between the two countries.

The team consisted of 7 specialists in the areas of cardiology, somatology, dermatology, general surgery, and acupuncture. It was stationed at Ayres de Menezes Hospital, but it served various medical facilities throughout the archipelago. In August 2018, a third medical team arrived to replace the second team.

📋 Staff Comments

As the third team replaced the second, it is assumed that this project is completed.
