The U.S. Government, through USAID, has committed an additional $1 million to support Armenia’s response to COVID-19.

This assistance continues to prepare laboratory systems, activate case-finding and event-based surveillance, support technical experts for response and preparedness, bolster risk communication, and more.

To date, USAID has provided nearly $2.7 million in emergency health funding to support Armenia's COVID response.

Besides, USAID’s Armenia Support Initiative committed $1.2 million in additional funding to address the economic impacts of COVID-19.

USAID’s Armenia Support Initiative stated: “It is expected that in the post-COVID-19 world, economic challenges will be inevitable. Vulnerable families and communities will feel its impact the most.

We are committed to offering them a helping hand through small, community-based grants.”
