The China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation has said it is participating in the construction of two COVID-19 response facilities in the Federal Capital Territory.

“The facilities are a 196-bed at “ThisDay Dome Treatment Centre,” in collaboration with Sahara Group and Arise News; and the 150-bed “Idu Depot Treatment Centre,” the company said. It also said 12 out of the 15-member personnel are experienced medical professionals with expertise in infectious disease, respiratory illness, intensive care, cardiology, neurology, general surgery and anesthesiology.
