Ronaldo Donates 1 Million Euro For COVID-19 Rescue!!!
Cristiano Ronaldo ‘giving away millions’ to hospitals as he spearheads coronavirus fight
Cristiano Ronaldo is continuing to spearhead the fight against the coronavirus pandemic by teaming up with his agent to finance hospitals in Portugal.
The Juventus superstar and Jorge Mendes had already bankrolled 200,000 gowns and three ventilators for the Sao Jao medical institution in Porto.
And the duo will now fund North Lisbon’s University Hospital Centre (CHULN) with two intensive care wings that each have the capacity to add an extra 20 beds.
The CHULN, which includes both the Santa Maria and Pulido Valente treatment centres, also confirmed that the new openings would be named after Ronaldo and Mendes.
The 35-year-old and his super-agent will also splash out on an intensive care wing in Porto’s Santo Antonio hospital, which will allow for the opening of 15 fully-equipped care beds.
They told ESPN: “Businessman Jorge Mendes and Cristiano Ronaldo will donate two intensive care wings for the CHULN; each wing will be totally equipped and will have the capacity for 10 beds.
“The units will be equipped with the charitable contribution of Mendes and Ronaldo. This equipment includes beds, ventilators, heart monitors, pumps and infusion syringes, essential equipment in the care of critically ill patients with COVID-19.
“These units, called UCI Jorge Mendes and UCI Cristiano Ronaldo, after the COVID-19 [pandemic is over] will be converted and will remain as a reinforcement of intensive care medicine, which had 31 beds before the new coronavirus pandemic, increasing its capacity to 51 beds.”
