To support medical teams to fight against COVID-19, Electricity Generating Public Company Limited or EGCO Group donated 1,000 UVC light bulbs worth over Bt700,000 through the Ministry of Public Health to the “SOS to Medical Staff in COVID-19 Fight” Group for producing 250 UVC sanitizer incubators for medical face mask sanitization to be donated to hospitals nationwide. The sanitizer incubators are divided into two specifications including 15-Watt and 30-Watt UVC tubes.
