TEHRAN - Iran International Exhibitions Company (IIEC) plans to hold an exhibition on the country’s medical and healthcare achievements in the battle against the coronavirus outbreak, IRNA reported on Sunday.

According to the IIEC Managing Director Bahman Hosseinzadeh, with a focus on the surge in production, the event will be held after the holy month of Ramadan (ends on May 23).
