Description
Since 1973, the Chinese Government has been dispatching medical teams to Tunisia. The Jiangxi Province is responsible for sending the teams. On June 4, 2014, the Chinese Government and the Government of Tunisia signed a cooperation protocol agreement to dispatch the 21st Chinese medical team to Tunisia. The medical team consisted of 45 members. It was stationed at Jendouba regional hospital (Hôpital Régional De Jendouba or المستشفى الجهوي بجندوبة), Sidi Bouzid regional hospital (Hôpital Régional De Sidi Bouzid or المستشفى الجهوي بسيدي بوزيد), Kasserine Regional Hospital (Hôpital Régional De Kasserine or المستشفى الجهوي بالقصرين), and Mongi Slim Hospital (Hôpital Mongi Slim or مستشفى المنجي سليم) in the northern suburbs of Tunis. Tunisia's Ministry of Public Health provided support to the Chinese medical team. The team left for its two-year stay in Tunisia on November 26, 2014. The send-off ceremony for the completion of its term of service was held on October 21, 2016.
