Petition against 538 party Breda signed more than 100,000 times | Inland

The petition is an initiative of surgeon Rogier Crolla. The ‘concerned healthcare providers, patients on the increasingly longer waiting lists, their loved ones and others’ argue that ‘this ill-considered pseudo-experiment’ should be called off, is written in the petition ‘With 538 disdainful care’.

10,000 people are allowed to attend the music station’s Fieldlab experiment on 24 April in Breda. The initiators of the petition have no understanding whatsoever for that. “Celebrating a party with 10,000 people four hundred meters from a hospital overloaded by Covid is a blow to patients and caregivers,” they write.

Capacity

Due to the corona pandemic, the hospital has reduced its operating capacity by at least half and the operating rooms are only available for acute and urgent care. Doctors assess daily whether surgery is really necessary or can be postponed. An Amphia spokesperson said earlier that he was concerned about the party, because the use of drugs or alcohol can lead to acute medical situations.

Crolla does not want to explain the petition and refers to the spokesperson for the Amphia. According to the surgeon, the hospital would not condemn the action. According to Mark van Hassel, spokesman for the Amphia, the petition that came online Saturday is a private initiative of surgeon Crolla. “He set this up in a personal capacity, but it further underlines the concerns that live among our care workers. We already expressed these concerns clearly from within our organization yesterday, ”he told BN DeStem.

Noise

The enthusiasm for the tickets for the event was enormous: more than 1 million people tried to get a ticket. The cards were distributed by draw.

The event takes place at the Chasséveld in Breda. Hospitality entrepreneurs in the city reacted furiously to the test event. They felt insulted that a major event is allowed in the city, while they have not been allowed to receive guests for months due to the corona measures. In addition, there is a lot of fuss about similar tests with access through rapid tests because the costs already amount to 1 billion euros, while hospitals sometimes even have to go to court to get the costs of ic beds reimbursed from the ministry.

All visitors to the 538 event must take a quick test before and after the party, which is provided by Stichting Open NL, which caused a fuss after it appeared that the first quick test activities had not been tendered and the costs for the State amounted to hundreds of millions walked.

Radio 538 and the Breda catering industry will soon discuss how they can work together. On Monday there will be an extra meeting in which the Breda mayor Paul Depla has to give a text and explanation to the city council about the event.
