The President of the Republic decorated the National Health Service with the highest national Honorary Order, the Ordem Militar da Torre e Espada, do Valor, Lealdade e Mérito, for “abnegation and heroism” in the dedication for the “higher mission of saving lives and health”, demonstrated, in particular, during the fight against the pandemic.

 

 

The decoration, awarded on the day that marks the second anniversary of the first case of covid-19 reported in Portugal, was received by the Minister of Health, Marta Temido, followed by a dinner that the head of state offered to specialists in public health and epidemiology “who helped to pave the way since March 2022” at the meetings at Infarmed’s headquarters.
