Coronavirus treatment medicine Paxlovid will arrive in Georgia this week. Such a statement made today the Minister of Health.

“This is a special medicine - Paxlovid - created by Pfizer. There are several countries in the world that have this drug and I am glad that Georgia will be one of such countries.

The medicine will be given free of charge to those who have chronic diseases and severe forms of coronavirus. It is essential to take these medications for the first five days after infection. As for the doses and price, I prefer to leave it confidential because it is as we have a non-disclosure agreement”, - said Zurab Azarashvili.
