On July 13, 2020, the 20th Chinese medical team to Cameroon provided a donation of anti-epidemic and protective materials to the Yaoundé Women and Children's Hospital. The materials included 2,400 masks, 960 hats, 90 sets of PPE, and 30 barrels of Lierkang 2% enhanced glutaraldehyde disinfectant. The monetary value of this donation is unknown. A handover ceremony was held for this donation. The Director of the Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Yaoundé attended the ceremony and thanked the medical team for their donation.
