Kelly Degnan: Georgia is Coping Impressively with COVID-19

The US Ambassador to Georgia, Kelly Degnan, held an online conference call with the Minister of Health Ekaterine Tikaradze.

The sides discussed the current situation in the country and asserted further cooperation from both countries. The Minister of Health described the condition of health in the country, while the American diplomat affirmed that the infection spread curve in the country has stablized- the product of accurate steps taken by the government during the first stages of the spread.

“I had a very productive dialogue with the Minister. The US Embassy is monitoring the current situation in Georgia. We have discussed current as well as future cooperation issues...The country spares no effort to stop the spread of the infection and prevent a peak that will be difficult for the healthcare system. The government has done a very good job, not only in terms of the management of infected people, but also in raising public awareness", said Degnan.
