Dear Tamar,
I’m really glad that we’ve been able to help. It’s also been a good opportunity for us to get to know you and your team, and learn about the broader challenges across the health sector.
I look forward to discussing and will ask Nata to set up a time that works for everyone. Let’s aim for Friday afternoon or early next week.
Regards,
Shane

Dear Shane
Many thanks for your e-mail and provided reports. This is very helpful. Let me to take this opportunity to thank ABD colleagues for enormous support provided during the pandemic. We would be more than happy to
work with ABD experts on priority setting for further ADB engagement to support health sector reforms. Please kindly let me know what would be most convenient time for you this week or next week for the meeting.
პატივისცემით,
თამარ გაბუნია

Dear Tamar,
The ADB-supported
Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation Program recently undertook a survey of households across 7 countries including Georgia. I am writing to share the results with you.
The focus is on household perceptions of the pandemic and vaccination. It includes interesting information on vaccine resistance. One clear takeaway is that people trust doctors and nurses for reliable
information about vaccines, something that is true across most countries.
In Georgia the survey of 1000 households was done in partnership with
PMC Research (Giorgi Kishtovani is the Research Director). The attachments include two presentations with conclusions, and a Word document with a break down of the results. I hope these are helpful.
Giorgi Kiziria is keeping me updated on progress of the ADB experts who have been supporting to MOH. This includes an assessment that George Gotsadze is undertaking of priorities in the health sector
as a basis for further ADB engagement that will get started this week. We would be interested in longer term engagement if it can be transformative. The timing of this work is good. In April we will be holding consultations on our “country programing”, an
annual process that leads to an indicative 3 year pipeline of ADB technical assistance and lending. As part of this we will request a meeting with you to discuss and learn more about your priorities and plans.
Regards,
Shane
