I've been working on it for several weeks. I am glad that finally the supply of tests and devices has begun. I know that at present there is a gradual defrosting of the economy and a return to everyday, normal life. However, we still need to remember that the epidemic is with us and among us. That is why it is so important to maintain safety measures and principles, but at the same time testing - fast and massive. The sooner and more infected people can be found among us, the better for us all - quotes the words of President Zygmunt Solorz sent to us press release.
Testing and diagnostics will be carried out by laboratories designated by the Ministry of Health. This is not the first help from Polsat. The group has provided 2.2 thousand so far. tablets with Internet access to the most needy children. It also collected PLN 3 million from advertising revenues and transferred to institutions involved in the fight against the epidemic. In addition, it transferred PLN 2 million from its own funds for the purchase of the most necessary equipment for healthcare and also undertook many other activities.
