Description
On August 13, 2008, the National Public Health Laboratory opened its center for the prevention and treatment of malaria in Brazzaville. The opening of the center was linked to a Chinese donation consisting of medical equipment and pharmaceutical drugs estimated to be worth 300 million CFA francs that was received by the Minister of Health, Social Affairs and Family, Emilienne Raoul. The center's goal is to conduct in-depth analysis and research on malaria. The Chinese government sent four experts, equipment, pharmaceuticals and reagents to ensure the operation of the center. These Chinese experts worked at the center for 45 days to train the Congolese staff.
