- The Ministry of Public Health stated that in March and April 2020 it launched a bid to buy ventilators through two public tenders, the details of which were published on the ministry's website, with the aim of ensuring transparency in the process of purchasing these devices, which the ministry has been keen since that time to secure in recognition of the urgent need for it. The artificial respirators in the Sports City are a gift provided by the State of Qatar, which is fifty and not five hundred, and their installation will begin next week with the completion of the first phase of the field hospital’s installation and operation in Sir Al-Danniyeh.

Accordingly, the Ministry cannot complete the purchase of devices under the slogan of encouraging the Lebanese industry, if these devices do not possess the aforementioned certificate that guarantees the quality of medical materials for their safe use in treating patients.
