Boronov noted that along with cooperation with pharmaceutical companies, the government is also conducting public procurement of necessary medicines.
According to the government of the Kyrgyz Republic, the pharmaceutical companies in Kyrgyzstan have imported about 8 thousand packages of "Kleksan" and about 20 thousand packages of "Heparin". Medical supplies are also expected to arrive in this week.
With the increase of the number of people infected with coronavirus, Kyrgyzstan faced a shortage of medical staff and medicines. The cost of drugs has also jumped sharply.
