Hundreds of doctors and health workers are protesting in Spain for the lack of strategy of the authorities in the current pandemic. The loudest protest was in Barcelona, where the resident doctors took off their clothes to show that they had reached the end of their patience.
Doctors criticize the lack of hospital staff and denounce the exhaustion to which they have been subjected for more than 7 months. The loudest protest was in Barcelona, where the resident doctors took off their clothes to show that they had reached the end of their patience.
Hundreds of neighbors condemn the lack of empathy of the Generalitat, which does not increase their salaries for many years and has been mining them for more than half a year in endless shifts.
“We thought from day one that we were doctors and nurses. And we fought, not with courage, but with the enthusiasm for which we had prepared ourselves. Now I have seen that it is a marathon and it is starting to have psychological effects. The 1918 epidemic left an atmosphere of anxiety and depression in Europe that lasted for many years. It took 4-5 years to pass and I think it will be the same now ”, says César Carballo, doctor at the Ramón y Cajal Hospital in Madrid.
The Catalans have been on strike for several days, as have the 112 doctors in Madrid, who will be accompanied in the protest by their colleagues from all over the region, Mediafax writes.
More than 50,000 doctors were infected in the first months of the pandemic in Spain. when they believed that fighting Covid-19 was the mission of their generation.
Many employees of the Spanish health system are now suffering the psychological effects that the entire Spanish society is feeling, like a century ago.
Several councilors of the Community of Madrid have resigned from the direction of the health administration, during the wave of protests organized by the doctors’ unions.
