Belarus has received more than 2,000 rapid coronavirus tests, medical protective suits, infrared thermometers, safety glasses, disposable gloves and shoe covers from China, according to Deputy Health Minister Boris Androsyuk.
The medical humanitarian aid from China arrived in Belarus on Wednesday. Belarus had earlier sent medical goods to China, Androsyuk said.
Chinese Ambassador to Belarus Cui Qimin said the humanitarian aid was only the first batch.
The Chinese embassy will purchase 10,000 tests with reagents for detecting coronavirus, masks, protective clothing, infrared thermometers, pulse oximeters and other medical supplies for Belarus, according to the ambassador.
The Chinese government plans to send a group of medical experts to Belarus, the ambassador added.
