The Health Ministry’s Public Health Department has organized intensive workshops and specialized lectures for medical teams who are to deploy at Kuwait International Airport to examine returning citizens as part of evacuations flights starting as of April 19, the department’s head Fahad Al-Qamlas told KUNA.
He reassured that the trained medical teams are now well-trained to deal with the emergency matter in a professional mode.
