On December 7, Seegene Mexico donated 50,000 COVID-19 diagnostic kits, 10,000 masks, and 50 freezers to Mexico City government.

The donated diagnostic kits will be delivered to healthcare workers in Mexico City for quarantine activities in Mexico, and the freezer will be used to store reagents and quarantine supplies.

The donation ceremony was held at Mexico City government office building, in the presence of Korean Ambassador in Mexico, KOTRA Mexico City Trade commissioner, Mexico City Mayor, and head of Seegene Mexico, and was introduced on the official website of Mexico City government, official SNS, and major broadcasting media.

Recently, more than 10,000 new confirmed cases continue to occur in Mexico, and both beds and medical personnel are insufficient. Accordingly, Mexico City has upgraded the level of response to infectious diseases to the highest level since December. Also, the city has been implementing strict quarantine measures that restrain daily life.

Head of Seegene Mexico said, “We hope that our donation of diagnostic kits and quarantine supplies will help prevent the spread of COVID-19.” He also said, “Seegene Mexico will continue to cooperate with Mexico City government to effectively respond to COVID-19 in the future.”
