& '97; The demonstration has come out at noon of the Sacred Heart &' 97; Not to dismantle the first attention! Save Osakidetza! with the motto and the road to the city hall.

On 8 June, the Health Advisor "made very serious statements", according to the unions, and denounce the strategy of the Basque Government: "Because it wants to dismantle primary care and precarize the other levels of care through privatization, aggression against public services and the private health insurance business."

Finally, on behalf of all the trade unions, they stated: "We must stress that this shortage of professionals is the result of political decisions that, in addition, try to use it in categories where it does not exist. But the only underlying reality is the unwillingness to strengthen public health and increase investment. The problem is not the lack of professionals, the problem is poor working conditions, unacceptable workloads, instability and systematic temporality".
