The government’s insistence on austerity is leading to the Public Health sector’s dissolution
AKEL C.C. Press Office, 16th September 2016, Nicosia
The recent figures, which have been revealed and published in relation to the very serious deficiencies and lack of supplies to public hospitals that have led to the postponement of operations, have exacerbated the Public Health sector’s general tragic situation. This situation is a result of the brutal austerity policies being pursued by the government and ruling forces in the health sector as well.
The government’s criminal inaction represents an attempt to privatize health through the complete denigration and depreciation of Public Hospitals.
