“We have always had shortages and we will always have. The question is in 2025 do we have more shortages than the past or fewer? ” This question was answered by Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis in an interview with today, commenting on Eurostat data on the NHS.

The Minister of Health continued: “The NHS is a giant. It has 110,000 workers, 127 hospitals, 360 health centers, 1,500 regional clinics, 3,000 contracting doctors. I am arguing with numbers, which are not disputed, that in 2025 the shortcomings in the NHS are less than ever. If you now say, for example, that there is a lack of a physician in Milos and all day this is playing in the media, the common perception of society will be that the NHS collapses. Eurostat will call you and the questionnaire that will put you will answer that the NHS is not going well. “

Also commenting on the reports and reports about “the NHS collapses”, Mr. Georgiadis stressed that “because I had been a minister 12 years ago and I have very clearly in my mind what the NHS was and what it is today, I tell you clearly that it has nothing to do with. NSS today is three times better than the past. We have faster digital systems, more doctors, more nurses, we do more surgery and have less waiting. “

For ranch at Tzanio, Nice and Metaxas hospitals, the last health minister said he had gone to all three hospitals many times. “I’ve been to both cameras and without cameras. And with on -call and without on -call. All three of my hospitals have reset my ranches. The call is not a ranch. If you have 25 beds on the call and pop 70 incidents, you will develop the ranch to examine it and then introduce them. This is not a ranch. It is a ranch to say that I have to introduce you and I have no to put you in a bed and put you in the corridor, ”he noted.

Finally, the Minister of Health also referred to the opposition’s criticism of the government’s “package” at the TIF: “Why does the opposition know what will we give to the TIF? To see the speech of Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Saturday night at the TIF. I predict a lot of crying in the opposition, “he said.

Shortly afterwards, the Minister of Health posted on X wrote:
