As reported, in April of this year, “Latvijas Gāze”, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, donated 100,000 euros to the foundation “Riga East Clinical University Hospital Support Fund”. According to Imants Paeglītis, Chairman of the Board of Riga East Clinical University Hospital, the donation from “Latvijas Gāze” has been one of the largest grants received by the medical institution during Covid-19. It is only appropriate that LIC receives this donation, because the center has brought the greatest weight, participating in both the treatment and testing of Covid-19 patients, Paeglītis said. With these funds, the foundation has purchased more than 6,000 personal protective equipment units and 12 non-contact digital thermometers for LIC.
