Minister of Health Ekaterine Tikaradze confirms that negotiations are underway to import Covid-19 medicine to Georgia.

"In general, such negotiations are always conducted under a confidential agreement. When we have the consent of the companies, we will make the details of the negotiation public," - Tikaradze said.

The FDA has approved the first coronavirus treatment drug produced by "Pfizer", which is intended for people over 12 years of age at risk of serious illness.

According to the results of clinical trials, the oral antiviral drug "Paxlovid" is 89% effective in preventing hospitalization and death in patients at high risk of developing severe disease.
