In a press conference after the exceptional meeting for the cabinet, the Health Minister said that Kuwait had improved its position on curbing the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) from the previous period especially during last Ramadan and Eid Al-Fitr when the load on hospitals were at 85 percent.


Thanks to lockdown, the load was decreased to 40 percent in ICU during this month and 30 percent in hospitals nationwide, he indicated.
