Poczta Polska supports field hospital construction
Ian Kerr
This week, Poczta Polska (Polish Post) delivered 120 pallets with beds destined for the temporary hospital being prepared at the National Stadium in Warsaw.
Poland’s biggest stadium will be transformed into an emergency field hospital which should provide 500 emergency hospital beds as the number of coronavirus cases continues to rise.
Poczta Polska is playing an important role in delivering hospital equipment across Poland. Last week it helped deliver respirators and cardiac monitors to hospitals across the country. Soon the Polish postal operator will deliver thousands more pallets, loaded with protective equipment – including masks and gloves.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, Poczta Polska has completed over 1,500 transport orders as part of the fight against the coronavirus.
“Any time we can help with the projects necessary to fight the virus, we are available. In times of crisis, our company and its employees always rise to the occasion.” Tomasz Zdzikot, President of the Poczta Polska Management Board.
The field hospital at the National Stadium will eventually be able to take 1000 patients. More field hospitals could be built across the country.
