The medical strike in the ACV on Friday has been followed up similar to the previous days
On the fourth and final dayof the strike called by the medical unions, the follow-upin the Osakidetzanetwork has been 19.63% in the morning shift and 9.22% in the afternoon.
During the four days of the strike there has been similar follow-up: between 17% and 20% in the morning shift and around 7% and 9% in the afternoon.
By historical territory, the largest follow-up was recorded this Friday in Bizkaia (22.06 per cent in the morning and 10.97 per cent in the afternoon); in Álava, unemployment was 13.61 per cent in the morning and 13.95 per cent in the afternoon; in Gipuzkoa, morning monitoring was 18.96 per cent and in the afternoon, 3.70 per cent.
The strike was called by the Confederation of State Medical Unions to oppose the draft Framework Statute that the Spanish Ministry of Health wants to approve. Doctors are calling for their own Framework Statute and, above all, for the reduction of working shifts and guard hours.
If the situation doesn't change, doctors don't rule out an indefinite strike in the near future.
The Health Adviserof the Basque Government, Alberto Martínez, has asked the Minister of Health, Monica García, to change her position in response to the demands of the doctors. Martinez has expressed concern about the lack of professionals and has denounced that no action is being taken.
