📋 Staff Comments

This project should not be confused with #91025, which captures a donation from the Guangdong Province to Guayas.
The numbers of supplies donated have been taken from Confirmado source (rather than the Ecuadorian official recipient source as would normally be suggested by AidData's methodology) insofar as included in the Confirmado source is a photo of the official letter sent by the Consulate General informing the Governor of Guayas about the donation. AidData has estimated the transaction amount for this donation based on price catalogues from the World Health Organization (WHO). Please see the TUFF Methodology for additional details.
