VOV.VN - Deputy Minister of Health Do Xuan Tuyen on August 14 presented the insignia For the People’s Health to Caitlin Marie Unites, deputy director of the Office of Health under the US Agency for International Development (USAID) for her contributions to HIV/AIDS control in Vietnam.
At the ceremony, Tuyen praised Unites for making practical contributions to Vietnam’s development and HIV/AIDS control in particular.
Over the past four years, Unites has lobbied the US Government to maintain financial and technical support for healthcare improvements and HIV/AIDS prevention in Vietnam, he said.
Together with US agencies, he said the USAID official has called on the US Government to donate more than 39 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines to Vietnam since 2020.
In addition, she has worked closely with USAID Washington to lobby the APRA Foundation and partners to assist Vietnam in purchasing anti-COVID equipment such as oxygen meters, personal protective equipment (PPE), N95 masks, syringes and other medical supplies.
The USAID official for her part thanked the Ministry of Health of Vietnam for giving her the chance to increase close cooperation in healthcare activities in general as well as in HIV/AIDS prevention and control in particular.
VOV.VN - The US Agency for International Development (USAID) and Linksages for Small and Medium Enterprises (LinkSME) project has remarkably supported the Vietnamese Government in researching, reviewing, and popularising mechanisms to improve the local business climate, thus improving the competitiveness capacity of local SMEs.
