Healthcare collapses for the fourth wave of the pandemic. In recent months, the confidence of the Greeks in the management of the emergency has almost halved
ROME. The first 85 white coats have been summoned for today and risk jail if they don’t show up. It takes at least twice as much to withstand the impact on the health facilities of the fourth wave of the pandemic. The Athens authorities have prepared an extraordinary plan to support hospitals that are facing the escalation of hospitalizations for Covid. The Greek government has started foreclosing on private doctors. Police officers gave 85 private doctors orders to report to public hospitals this morning to take up service
Legal consequences
Doctors who fail to show up face sentences of up to three years in prison. The Greek government’s decision comes after an appeal was made to private doctors at the beginning of November to volunteer to support the public hospital system. But only forty doctors had made themselves available so far. According to data provided by the association of hospital doctors, at least 150 doctors are needed.
Management
Despite the broad support for the adoption of the vaccine passport, European citizens say however that they are increasingly frustrated by the restrictions related to the fight against the coronavirus and dissatisfied with the results achieved by their governments. For example, in Germany the percentage of those who say that their country is managing the fight against the pandemic well has gone from 67 percent in 2020 to 44 percent, in Italy from 58 to 48 percent and in Greece, even, from 72. to 42 percent.
