It is planned to allocate UAH 13 million from the state budget for the purchase of a stationary oxygen station for the Kharkiv City Clinical Hospital No. 13.

Igor Terekhov, the secretary of the Kharkiv City Council, told reporters about this today, March 31, after a meeting of the Executive Committee of the City Council.. He noted that such a promise during the negotiations was given to him by the Minister of Health Maxim Stepanov.

“Oxygen is available in all city hospitals that accept patients with coronavirus, and in sufficient quantities. However, we have to rent barrels of oxygen. Now we are talking about a stationary oxygen station. The minister promised to allocate a subvention in the amount of 13 million hryvnia for its purchase. We have already found a suitable option - a good station of foreign production. As soon as the money is allocated, we will acquire it, ”said Igor Terekhov.
