The Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced through the Mexican Government's official website that it made a donation of medical devices (respiratory ventilators) made in Mexico. The recipients of these will be some Caribbean countries.

Among those who will benefit from this donation are Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Haiti, Saint Lucia, Suriname and Trinidad and Tobago.

"We have come to build these fans that are not only saving the lives of Mexican men and women, but we hope they will also save the lives of our Caribbean brothers and sisters," said Amexcid CEO Laura Elena Carillo.

For his part, the ambassador of the Dominican Republic in Mexico, Jonny de Jesús Martínez Mézquita, thanked the government for its management and concern for creating cooperation between the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean.

"The pandemic has become a challenge and an important opportunity to rethink priorities at the global level. Threats such as this can only be faced and overcome through unity and cooperation," concluded the Ambassador.

The respiratory ventilators were manufactured with Mexican technology by a company that is also Mexican and has all the international standards to be able to affirm its good operation and efficiency, in addition they are part of a scientific-technical exchange between the countries involved.
