Field Hospital - PWE maintains its declaration of assistance

In connection with the plans of the Polish government to create field hospitals in Mazovia, PTAK Warsaw Expo maintains its declaration on the adaptation of the congress and fair centre to a temporary hospital for COVID-19 infected people.

On 24 March 2020, Tomasz Szypuła, President of PTAK Warsaw Expo for the first time declared his full readiness to support the government’s efforts to combat the coronavirus: We are ready, in the event of a growing coronavirus pandemic, to make the PTAK Warsaw Expo facility in Nadarzyn available to the authorities on a completely non-commercial basis for the creation of a field hospital, as was done in Italy, Spain or the United States. The largest Expo facilities in Milan, Madrid and New York were adapted for the field hospitals,” said PWE President.

During the first wave of the pandemic, the field hospitals were not built. Now that the government has decided to create temporary hospitals for coronavirus-infected people in the Mazowieckie Voivodeship, the President of PWE, Tomasz Szypuła, once again extends a helping hand to those in power. The Board remains ready and, if necessary, will provide the Polish state with the opportunity to use the expo halls free of charge in order to create a field hospital.

PTAK Warsaw Expo has 6 halls with a total area of almost 150,000 m2, which are located in Nadarzyn near Warsaw. Apart from a huge internal area, there is 500 thousand m2 of external space around the halls.
