UAE sent second aid plane to Costa Rica in fight against Covid-19
The UAE sent a second aid plane carrying 12 metric tonnes of medical supplies and testing kits to Costa Rica. This will help around 12,000 medical professionals as they battle with Covid-19 virus.
“The dispatch of a medical aid plane to Costa Rica today is part of supporting the outstanding bilateral relations between the two countries and boosting Costa Rican efforts in the fight against the virus,” said Juma Al Rumaithi, UAE Ambassador to Costa Rica.
“This is the second aid plane sent by the UAE to Costa Rica. The first, carrying 8.5 metric tonnes of medical supplies, was sent last June as part of efforts to help healthcare workers in Costa Rica and provide them with additional protection in containing the pandemic,” he added.
