The shared goal is to promote the health and well-being of inhabitants in both countries. The Ambassador stressed the need to capitalise on the actual benefits of harmony, with a focus on boosting people’s living standards and overall health.

The signing of the MOU between PureHealth and Sheba Medical Center represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity for both parties to utilise the strengths, benefiting patients, medical professionals, and the healthcare sector as a whole, as well as laying the groundwork for new developments.
