    Pandemic: Paraguay receives US$ 20 million to support its health system

    “We are in an emergency situation where everyone's support is fundamental” stated Benigno López, Minister of Finance of Paraguay.

    The World Bank Board of Directors approved today a loan of US$20 million to support Paraguay in strengthening its health system in the face of the coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19). In the context of the country's current health situation, already affected by the worst dengue outbreak in recent years, the project will help strengthen the already overburdened health system through the purchase of medical supplies and equipment.
