SCB Julius Baer donates medical equipment to three upcountry hospitals to help them cope with the COVID-19 crisis
Deeply concerned about the hardships Thailand people are facing because of the pandemic, SCB-Julius Baer Securities Co., Ltd. recently donated medical equipment to three upcountry hospitals, namely, Khanom Hospital in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Lomsak Hospital in Petchabun, and Yala Hospital in Yala. The support aimed to strengthen Thailand’s public healthcare system in coping with Covid-19. SCB-Julius Baer Securities Co., Ltd. Chief Executive Officer Lalitphat Toranavikra said, “Thailand’s economy and society have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Every organisation should come together and join efforts to support the Thai society to weather through the crisis. We realise that a strong public healthcare system is crucial in alleviating the crisis and bringing the situation under control. This will lead to a faster recovery of livelihoods and eventually, the country’s economy. SCB Julius Baer wishes to play a vital role in providing support to the Thai community during this challenging period, by donating medical equipment - including powered air purifying respirators (PAPRs), ventilators, and negative pressure units - to three upcountry hospitals in Nakhon Si Thammarat (Khanom Hospital), Petchabun (Lomsak Hospital), and Yala (Yala Hospital). We hope that our support will save the lives of patients infected with Covid-19 and lighten the pressure experienced by medical staff in hospitals situated in non-central regions. Doing so, we hope that Thailand will recover from this crisis soon.”
