So far, the Bulovka University Hospital will not receive 90 million crowns for the operation of a field hospital at the exhibition center in Letňany, which served as a deposit in case of overcrowding of patients with covid-19. According to the Ministry of Finance, which asked for the money, the cost of the contract is between the hospital and the private company ABF. He has to turn to his founder, the Ministry of Health.
“Unfortunately, we received a negative opinion from the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic regarding the reimbursement of costs associated with the operation of the field hospital in Letňany,” Filip Řepa, head of the hospital’s PR and communication department, informed today. “We still believe that together we will find a way out of the situation and thus prevent further indebtedness of the hospital, which was also clearly the busiest in the Czech Republic during the pandemic,” he added.
According to Zdeněk Vojtěch from the Communications Department, the Ministry of Finance is not competent to assess applications for any payments for this hospital. “These are obligations arising from the legal relationship between the hospital and ABF, which by its nature need to be resolved within the budget of the hospital concerned, or in coordination with the founder,” he said. He also reminded that the hospital received 1.29 billion crowns to pay its liabilities last year.
The army built a backup hospital in Letňany at the end of October last year due to the autumn deterioration of the situation in medical facilities. According to plans, up to 500 patients could find help in the exhibition halls. The hospital was never fully operational, also due to a lack of staff.
The establishment of the hospital was a political decision. It was announced on October 15 by the Minister of Defense Lubomír Metnar (for YES). Prime Minister Andrej Babiš (YES) said that Prague hospitals should supply staff to it. The director of Bulovka, Jan Kvaček, said at the time that the staff would be missing in the hospitals if they moved him to temporary beds. The government approved the establishment of the hospital a day later, the then Minister of Health Roman Prymula (for YES) said that washing clothes or providing food will be linked to Bulovka, which is closest.
In the end, it was Bulovka who concluded a contract with the ABF company of billionaire Petr Sehnal on October 17. According to a document in the register of contracts, it was to pay 22 million crowns without VAT by 30 November. Until February, the hospital calculated the total costs at almost 100 million crowns, and the cooperation between the army and the State Material Reserves Administration cost additional money.
In addition to the rent, the hospital also paid energy and other services to the owner Petr Petrhn’s company. The lease of space for a backup hospital was terminated by the Ministry of Health on 19 February. Sehnal offered the then Minister of Health Jan Blatný (for YES) a price reduction of two thirds.
Exhibition and congress hall buildings are mainly used as vaccination centers during the coronavirus epidemic. The second field hospital was established at the exhibition center in Brno, later the premises were provided for vaccination.

This information is really good and I will say will always be helpful if we try it risk free? So if you can back it up ? That will really help us all. And this might bring some good repute to you. The diet of human beings prior to the arrival of agriculture, technology and civilization is known as the Paleolithic Diet !! This Stone Age diet, in short, consisted of mainly lean red meat and vegetables. In this type of diet animal meat is consumed in large quantities and 45 to 65 of the energy needed by the body is derived from it. Over and over again, life expectancy studies related to diet, including by the World Health Organization (WHO), have concluded that Americans and Europeans would do better to eat more like third world peoples as the options provided by their additional wealth have most often lead to poor nutritional choices. This is the same basis for the USDA based their popular food pyramid in 1994 !! Researchers at Harvard have only suggested perhaps tweaking the food pyramid by replacing some dairy products and read meat with more fruits, vegetables, and fish while also emphasizing the importance of improving the ratio of “good” to “bad” cholesterol, Plus, exercise not only makes weight loss much easier, but also lowers blood glucose levels, decreases blood pressure, improved circulation, and increases one’s metabolism. Good regular sleep patterns are also just as important. Diets based on USDA recommendations include DASH, American Diabetic Assoc, Weight Watchers, and Jenny Craig When children understand how important “real food” is and where the natural ingredients of our food come from, they will increase the general population’s appreciation for preserving our natural environment and limiting toxins and polluting processes in our world. We may even trend back to the time when people stepped outside their homes to interact with family and neighbors in home and community gardens and block-party barbeques? Does anybody even remember how nice those days were?
