Dr. Ahmad Jawad Osmani on Thursday was introduced as the acting minister of public health and he said in a press conference that he would bring reforms to the health sector.

Osmani at his first press conference said the coronavirus must be fought, but also reforms in hospitals and in other service areas must be made.

He also said that the current health services do not meet the people’s standards and health services need to be increased.

On May 31, President Ashraf Ghani appointed Dr. Osmani as the acting minister of public health, replacing Ferozuddin Feroz, who had served in the post since 2015.

This is a developing story.
