Attention: If you have such a TV at home, do not throw it away. They are worth $500

Don’t throw away your old and unnecessary TV, but rather donate it to needy, sick people. In order to diversify the lives of patients at the TB dispensary, doctors have appealed to residents of the Ternopil region to donate TV sets to those who only see hospital walls every day. The only request is that the equipment should work and its age should not exceed fifteen years, INTB reports.

“Now, many who install serious audio-acoustic systems, video systems, plasma TVs and TVs that are 10 or 5 years old at home are already thinking about where to put them and how to get rid of them, so we would like to appeal to the population: if you have such TVs, not broken and, of course, one that works, you can donate it to the TB dispensary,” says Olena Zozulyak, regional coordinator of the ACSM for the Ternopil region.

Today, there is a tuberculosis epidemic in Ukraine. Our region has not been spared either. Although Ternopil region is among the six regions with the lowest incidence, doctors say there is no need to relax. After all, tuberculosis is transmitted by airborne droplets, which means that absolutely all people are at risk, without exception. In the eleven months of 2012, five hundred and fifteen sick citizens were identified.

“If we take, for example, our mobile fluorography machines go to districts and villages, a small number of people undergo X-ray examinations, approximately 20-30 people undergo them per day, although several times more may come, this again indicates that the paramedics and the village council are working poorly, and they are not informing the population about the problems of tuberculosis,” said Tetyana Romaniv, a tuberculosis specialist at the regional tuberculosis dispensary.
