国际英语资讯:Sudanese officials praise Chinese medical teams support in fight against COVID-19

Chinese Ambassador to Sudan Ma Xinmin, for his part, told Xinhua that China and Sudan, as close friends and strategic partners, have worked together to fight the virus.

"In the future, the Chinese government will provide more assistance to Sudanese friends," said Ma, expressing the hope that the two countries would strengthen their cooperation in the field of public health and disease control.

Meanwhile, Hamza Awadalla, a Sudanese epidemiologist and community medicine specialist, said the visit of the Chinese medical team would certainly help Sudan develop its capabilities in containing the COVID-19 spread.

"China maintains huge accumulative experiences in the field of combating COVID-19 and the Chinese medical experts have certainly shared those experiences with the Sudanese sides," Awadalla told Xinhua.

"It is not surprising that China has sent a high-level medical delegation of highly experienced experts in fighting the coronavirus," said Awadalla, adding that "China always expresses its positive stances towards Sudan and its people."

The Chinese medical team arrived in the Sudanese capital Khartoum on May 28.

During their stay in Sudan, the experts exchanged with the Sudanese health officials, medical professionals and frontline medical workers the know-how and professional experience in COVID-19 prevention and containment, clinical treatment and coronavirus testing.

As of June 10, they have visited a total of 14 medical institutions, held 34 meetings, conducted on-site guidance seven times, trained 18 times, and trained more than 2,200 people.
