Hospital Crisis in Dutch Province


The operating rooms in two hospitals in Lelystad and Emmeloord have been shut down after the health inspectorate announced that the risk of infection in these hospitals is too great. (The air filtering system in the hospitals is insufficient for proper surgery. These problems had been known to the management but were ignored for months.) The mayor of Lelystad has asked to bring a military emergency hospital to the town.http://www.volkskrant.nl/binnenland/article1068421.ece/Burgemeester_Lelystad_wil_militair_noodhospitaal
