A “catastrophic decision” by the Minister of Education … a request to parents

Deputy Cesar Maalouf, a member of the “Strong Republic” bloc, wrote on his Facebook page that: “As Lebanon suffers from an acute shortage of medicines and an insane increase in its prices, is there any urgent bill that is more duplicated than the proposal that I presented to Parliament? Four months ago?

He added: “I contacted the Vice President of Parliament, Elie Ferzli, and the head of the Parliamentary Health Committee, Representative Assem Araji, and they greeted and thanked me, as they promised to follow up on the issue of the bill. tomorrow morning, Monday. “

In a related context, Maalouf called on “all people to ignore the wrong decision of the Minister of Education, if not the catastrophic one, and refrain from sending their children to school tomorrow. We have entered the stage of medical disaster in terms of hospital capacity, drug supply and the high rate of injuries, but our minister sings from another planet. “

He noted that “in order not to precede the Italian scenario and make Lebanon the example, I call on all private hospitals, specifically those of Zahle and Bekaa, to surrender a little and work to open their doors to those infected by the Coronavirus. Official hospitals are on the verge of collapse. “

Maalouf concluded: “We are on the front line of war and our enemy is a deadly virus. It is time to make sensible and wise decisions. Mistakes are fatal.”
