Moreover, hospitals in Attapeu Province like any other hospitals face many challenges when dealing with COVID-19, from a shortage of supplies, equipment, to infrastructure that is difficult to adapt for the safe care of the infectious patient. So part of the activity offers support to decrease the impact of this problem to ensure the safety of the medical staff and patients.

On the other hand, prior to the implementation of the emergency response, the signing of the Memorandum of Agreement between the representative of Attapeu Provincial Health Department and SFE has been on the scheduled on the 17th of November 2020.
