Dean Yu said this by sending an emergency letter to the medical school teachers around 6:40 pm on the 28th. He is preparing for collective action at the hospital level in response to the impeachment measures of the government. The average number of outpatients at Severance Hospital per day ranges from 9,000 to 10,000.
Dean Yu said: “The Ministry of Social Welfare initiated an indictment against 10 elderly people (including 1 elderly at Severance Hospital) who participated in the strike.” He expressed the will of the government to do so. “
He said, “We can no longer allow this country’s medical system to collapse, and we cannot harm our youth and students. We hope that all teachers will sympathize and keep an eye on progress.”
Dae-Hyun Yoo, professor of plastic surgery at the medical school and dean of the Yonsei University medical school, is also known as the Repert doctor who performed the surgery for the former US ambassador to Korea, who was attacked with a weapon in 2015.
The following is the full text of a letter from Dean Yu to the teachers.
Dear Professors of Yonsei University School of Medicine
In a statement on behalf of a medical school professor this morning, we expressed our professors’ concerns about the current medical strike situation and our determination not to overlook incorrect medical and educational policies and the disadvantages of students.
Today, however, the Ministry of Health and Welfare immediately initiated legal proceedings against 10 older people (including 1 older person at Severance Hospital) who participated in the strike. He expressed the government’s willingness to push for wrong policies while ignoring the prudent and restrained minimum demands of our teachers to resolve the situation.
Now, I believe that our teachers have reached a situation where they can no longer ignore this tyranny of the Ministry of Welfare. We held an emergency response meeting this afternoon, gathered input from various professors, contacted the faculty council, and discussed our countermeasures.
In the future, we will solicit the opinions of the teachers and prepare for a strong response, such as the reduction of all treatments except the emergency room, intensive care unit and treatment related to corona, phased strike and the presentation of the teacher’s resignation. We can no longer afford the luxury of letting go of this country’s disintegrating medical system, and we cannot harm our youth and disciples.
We ask all teachers to sympathize with us and monitor progress.
August 28, 2020
Daehyun Yoo, Dean of the School of Medicine
