Your dedication, strength and humanity are priceless”, noted Premier Zhelyzakov, quoted in a post on the Council of Ministers' Facebook page.

Among the priorities are the construction of a National Multi-Profile Hospital for Active Treatment of Children and the establishment of a National Proton Therapy Center.

''You are the ones who inspire hope, who save lives and offer comfort in the most difficult moments. I deeply thank you for your work, for your sleepless nights, for the humanity and empathy with which you care for people every day'', added Premier Zhelyazkov.
