Since Friday in the Basque Autonomous Community there are six less active ambulances of infected, as the Basque Government has decided that ambulances that have been working on the pandemic are no longer necessary. Therefore, the nearly 60 workers of the plant have been unemployed in the Basque Country. The unions ELA, LAB, UGT and CCOO have called for all these workers to be rehired because with COVID-19 and without it that ambulance service is “necessary”.
In a statement, the unions have criticized the authorities for "measuring" and denounced that during the pandemic politicians told them that the service "had to protect and strengthen it", but now they have been forgotten. They also criticized the fact that the CAV’s health system has been “outdated” for a long time and that the privatization of services entails greater damage: “More precariousness, more insecurity, more spending.” They call on the Basque Government to put people’s health above economic benefits.
In addition, in anticipation that the incidence of influenza will be noted in the coming months, they have warned that the emergency transport network will function properly and have called on the Basque Government to reintegrate all redundant workers and launch the recalled ambulances.
