An aircraft arrived at the Boryspil International Airport (Kyiv) delivering from China to Ukraine another 100,000 high-precision PCR tests for coronavirus, 40,000 reusable glasses, medical masks and equipment for ventilators.

After the customs and sanitary procedures, the cargo will be delivered to the hospitals and laboratories all over the country.

Protection means will also be provided to the military and State Border Service personnel.

In addition, medical masks will be provided to pharmacies to meet the demand of the population.

The Office of the President of Ukraine, which organized the delivery of medical supplies for the healthcare system, also facilitated the import to Ukraine of rapid tests and medical supplies purchased by domestic entrepreneurs.
