Today, one more part of charity help from Vadym Novynsky International Charitable Fund has come to Mariupol. Thus, Mariupol hospitals will be equipped with two mechanical ventilation devices, and medical staff with suits and personal protective equipment.
According to Mayor Vadym Boichenko, due to a clear algorithm of actions and regular support of Rinat Akhmetov and Vadym Novynsky, they managed to quickly respond and prevent the spread of coronavirus infection in Mariupol.
The Mayor also informed about the allocation of state funding for supplements to physicians working in conditions of increased danger. ‘We expect the receipt of about UAH 30 million for an additional payment to our doctors and nurses. It will be distributed between three city hospitals, where hospital bases for the fight against coronavirus infection are organized. Our surcharge will be at the same level,’ he stressed.
It is worth noting that this is the third batch of assistance from Vadym Novynsky Foundation.
