Ganta, Nimba County – In continuation of its support to Government of Liberia (GoL) to combat the novel coronavirus disease, the health NGO Refuge Place International (RPI) has extended its gesture to Bong and Nimba Counties with the donation of four factory-made oxygen concentrators to treatment units. The donation of the oxygen concentrators to the two counties came barely after a week of the donation of 11 concentrators to health facilities across Montserrado. Dr. Netty Joe, County Health Officer (CHO) of Nimba County, said the county’s health officials have tremendously performed at the highest level to avoid referral as Montserrado itself is overwhelmed with different health cases. Dr. Jonathan Flomo, County Health Officer of Bong County, like Dr. Joe, and also pleaded for more support and vowed to ensure that the donated concentrators are used for their intended reasons. Prior to this donation, he said there was only one oxygen concentrator at the Bong County treatment unit.
