Egypt’s Health Minister Khaled Abdel Ghaffar met Sweden’s ambassador to Cairo Dag Juhlin on Sunday to discuss strengthening bilateral cooperation in the healthcare sector, including preparations for a planned visit by Sweden’s health minister, the Egyptian health ministry said.
Ministry spokesperson Hossam Abdel Ghaffar said talks covered arranging field visits for the Swedish minister to Egyptian hospitals and pharmaceutical factories to boost cooperation and exchange expertise across multiple health fields.
The planned visit will also include reviewing Egypt’s efforts to provide medical care to Palestinians wounded in Gaza, the statement said, as Cairo continues to offer treatment to injured patients arriving from the enclave.
