Orthopaedic surgeon in Ciechanów billed 574,000 PLN in two months

An orthopaedic surgeon working at the Regional Specialist Hospital in Ciechanów issued an invoice for 316,000 PLN for a single month's work, and a further 258,000 PLN the following month — a combined 574,000 PLN over two months. Wirtualna Polska tracked down the doctor, who explained how the billing was possible; both record-high invoices in the Masovian region turned out to be his. The case feeds into a wider debate about excessive pay in Polish public hospitals.

Best foods and drinks to stay cool during a heatwave

During heatwaves, nutritionists advise cutting back on high-protein foods because digesting them generates more internal body heat. Light meals based on water-rich vegetables and fruits — such as cucumber, watermelon and lettuce — are recommended instead. Staying hydrated with electrolyte-rich drinks is also key to coping with extreme heat.

Poland registers record 312,000 new cars in H1 2026, but figure is artificially inflated

Poland registered over 312,000 new passenger cars in the first half of 2026, a record figure according to the Polish Automotive Industry Association. However, June's surge was artificially inflated by an unusual wave of registrations of final production batches ahead of regulatory changes introduced in July. Industry observers warn the result does not reflect genuine consumer demand.
