A spokesperson for the Ministry of Health and Welfare, Son Young-rae, said in a briefing at the Disaster and Security Countermeasures Headquarters on the 9th: “If public consent is not preceded, it is not a matter that the government can decide easily “.
Spokesman Sohn said: “Currently, medical students refuse to take the national exams themselves, and have not yet received an official opinion that they will take the national exams. In this situation, it is necessary to discuss additional opportunities for the exams. national “. It falls off, “he said.
It should be noted if medical students will announce their intention to sit for the national exam since the doctoral exam started on the 8th. Currently, medical students have not yet officially announced their request for acceptance of additional tests. Currently, discussions are focusing on the student council of each university medical school.
The day before, a survey conducted by the Seoul National University Medical College Student Association surveyed 884 enrolled students on whether to continue the collective action of refusing to take an alliance license and take the national exam, and the 70.5% opposed. 745 people (84%) participated in the vote. In particular, 81% of 4th grade students who are required to take the national exam this year responded that they do not want to continue their group action.
However, even if medical students formulate their intention to take the national exam, it is not known whether they will be able to take the actual exam.
The government has previously delayed the execution date and the application deadline. On the 31st of last month, when approximately 90% of 4th grade medical school students across the country rejected the government’s medical policy and canceled the application for the national practical exam, the exam that was originally scheduled for the first day was postponed to 8, a week later, and new shots were received. However, only 446 (14%) of 3,172 test takers received no significant change in testing rate. The government started the practical exam as scheduled, and on the 8th, the first day of the exam, only 6 people took the exam. In the past, 108 people watched it a day.
Some voices oppose the relief of medical students who refused to sit for the exam. On the notice board of the Blue House National Petition, a post was posted saying ‘I oppose the subsequent relief for medical students who canceled the registration of national time’, and at 10:30 am on the day, 470,990 people agreed.
There are also concerns that there will be a shortage of medical personnel next year, such as military physicians and public health physicians (public affairs physicians), due to the refusal of this year’s medical students. Public Affairs Physicians and Military Physicians are selected from senior physicians and full-time physicians who have passed the national exam for physicians and obtained a medical license.
Spokesperson Sohn said: “We are currently working on a plan, so we cannot reveal the details, but we do not think there is a big setback as military surgeons are being selected primarily from interns or specialists who have been trained in the majority. of the specialties “. It’s a number of people, but next year there are about 500 staff members, so I predict that about 300 people will be affected. “
