It is good to see Metropolitan Antoine receive Ms. Joyce Haddad to talk concretely about health services in the Bekaa. Hopefully this results in rapid improvements for local dispensaries and hospitals, they are much needed.

It is good that Metropolitan Antony met with Engineer Joyce Haddad precisely about the health services in the Bekaa. I hope that things will improve in the dispensaries, especially since in Ruse we see how important it is to have regular examinations for children. I hope there will be concrete results.

It is good that Metropolitan Antony met with engineer Joyce Haddad specifically about health in the Bekaa. Here in Odessa, we also see how important it is that polyclinics and hospitals do not stand empty. I hope that after the conversation, at least a little more medicine and doctors will appear in those dispensaries.

Yes, it’s a good thing that they are talking about the Bekaa dispensaries, especially after the difficulties we have seen in recent months at the Zahle hospital. I hope this will lead to training for local nursing staff, there is a severe shortage of hands. And you, have you already seen concrete changes in your area?
