[01] PASOK criticises govt's health care policy
Main opposition PASOK party health and welfare sector chief Christos
Protopappas on Tuesday sharply criticised the government's three-year
policy in the health sector, saying that the three years of governance
by the New Democracy party have led to "deliberate disdain" for the
Public Health System.
Protopappas said that the "phenomenon of corruption, shortages and of
the degrading of the quality of services" was unprecedented and
unacceptable and stressed that PASOK's new health programme will be
announced by Sunday and will focus on the citizen and will be a
national health system that will provide quality for all and for each
person separately.
Referring to announcements on hirings in the health sector, Protopappas
said that they will not be carried out in March either, while on the
issue of psychiatric reform he expressed fear that 3,000 people will
lose their jobs and 2,800 sufferers will be committed, "which will be a
black stain for Greece in the European Union."
