Kubis says same level of services must be given to all patients, regardless of their legal status and nationality

The United Nations Special Coordinator for Lebanon Jan Kubis called on Monday for providing testing and treatment to all population groups across the country through the network of hospitals designated for the response. 
 
“The health response needs to be coherent and unified under the oversight of the Government of Lebanon and offer the same level of services to all patients, regardless of their legal status and nationality,” Kubis said during the meeting of the International Support Group for Lebanon in Baabda presidential Palace.

He also called for taking care of the Palestinian and Syrian refugees amid the Coronavirus outbreak, adding that work is ongoing to deliver “critical assistance and services to most vulnerable communities, including primary health care, protection, shelter and sanitation.”
