China grants medical equipment to Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Barbados in 2018 (linked to project ID #63992)

On February 13, 2018, during the second Chinese medical team's visit to Barbados, a handover ceremony occurred for a grant of medical supplies from the Chinese government to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH). In his speech at the event, Ambassador Yan Xiusheng recognized the Chinese medical teams that previously provided assistance to the hospital (see projects #54835, #54834, #71321, and #54836). The grant included both medical equipment and consumables. It is valued at USD $200,000. In 2016, China donated hospital heart monitors to the hospital (project ID #71832). In 2017, China also granted USD $200,000 to QEH (project #63992).
