O. Józef Cydejko, a Franciscan friar from Legnica, decided to get tested for coronavirus after a teleconsultation. For this purpose, he went to the testing site in Legnica run by the Healthcare Centre in Bolesławiec.
When he arrived, it was around noon, and about 40 people were standing in the queue. “There is no information about when it opens or closes. The queue was barely moving because everything is going very slowly,” the clergyman reports.
When it turned out that the site was open until 2 p.m., the clergyman, who was 35th in the queue, gave up. (He said that even if he did not have COVID, standing in that queue would give him some other illness.) He also called local institutions. An employee of the Legnica branch of the National Health Fund was the only person to show concern for his situation.
What is the situation like in Bolesławiec?
The queue moves faster here, but that also depends on the day of the week. It is worst after the weekend. Sometimes people have to wait four hours for a test at the site.
How can this situation be improved?
“The only solution will be to have more sites,” says Kamil Barczyk, head of the Bolesławiec Healthcare Centre.
The hospital in Bolesławiec currently operates six testing sites: in Bolesławiec, Zgorzelec, Polkowice, Lubin, Legnica and Głogów. More are scheduled to open next week—additional sites in Bolesławiec and Lubin. Sites in Świeradów-Zdrój, Świebodzin and Środa Śląska are also expected to open soon.
