UPDATE The manager of the Colentina Hospital, Víctor Cauni, affirmed that the patients are heated with air conditioners.
“This morning we were notified of the interruption after 9 a.m. until midnight when we hope to return. Hot water is not a luxury, but a necessity. We train with the technical department, we install heating appliances, boilers, so that the equipment that finish the work in the red zone can be decontaminated. In order not to overload the network, we use hot air conditioners for the patients, “said the manager of the Colentina Hospital, Víctor Cauni.
According to him, there have been other problems, not so long, but any damage of this kind does not benefit anyone.
“The management team provided in next year’s draft budget the installation of thermal power plants in each building,” to guarantee some independence, Cauni added.
For his part, Raed Arafat said the only long-term solution is to install thermal power plants.
“It is an unpredictable situation, you have to find solutions, which are only temporary. It is long term to have your own power plants, “said Arafat.

They were told it would take 2-3 days, they cannot be left in the cold! ”A young woman from Bucharest reported on her Facebook page on Friday.
