PT Freeport Indonesia Continues Oxygen Donations and Other Pandemic Relief to Papuan Hospitals

Northampton, MA --News Direct-- Freeport-McMoRan

As Indonesia faces a surge in COVID-19 cases nationwide, PT Freeport Indonesia (PT-FI) is supporting Mimika Regency hospitals and health centers by providing oxygen cylinders that are necessary for ventilated patients.

Since the start of the outbreak, PT-FI has worked extensively in partnership with local government to help with COVID-19 public health efforts. PT-FI uses its two rapid polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing laboratories to confirm COVID-19 diagnoses in the region. The company’s medical services providers continue to expand their testing reach to identify positive cases more quickly and carry out tracing efforts to deter the virus’s spread. PT-FI also provides isolation facilities for community members with positive diagnoses and has initiated a vaccination program for employees and their families.
