In Blato on Korčula, grief and anger continue over the death of 26-year-old Frano Borovina, who died in a Dubrovnik hospital after an eight-and-a-half-hour transport from Lastovo. His family and friends are furious and demand answers, but state prosecutors and inspections remain silent, providing no information about possible responsibility or mistakes in his treatment. Frano suffered from an ear infection that worsened into meningococcal sepsis and pneumonia. Although the health inspection completed its review, the results have not been published, and the prosecution reportedly is not pursuing further action. Friends and family refuse to let the case be forgotten and demand the investigation be sped up. The former director of the health center in Blato, Jurica Petković, now the head of the municipality, has not contacted the family, raising suspicions of inadequate care. Frano first sought help at the emergency service in Blato and from a family doctor, but no blood tests were done, and his pain was only treated with tablets. This tragic case reveals serious failures in the healthcare system and emergency transport organization, with family and friends demanding justice and transparency. The silence and irresponsibility fuel outrage and suspicion that the case is being covered up. Got thoughts on this mess? Drop a comment and let’s see if we can break the silence and demand some real answers!
