Osakidetza.

Two people related to the Plastic, Aesthetic and Restorative Surgery specialty exam, performed on May 20, 2018, will sit on the bench of the defendants. 

The president of the Basque PP, Javier de Andrés, has stated that his party has "many doubts" about what happened and has considered that "there are elements that show that it was not an occasional and unusual thing", but that "it is broader than what was originally transmitted".

EH Bildu's spokesman in the Basque Parliament, Pello Otxandiano, has warned that the "crisis" of expired vaccines  is not "solved" because information is missing. He has held the Basque Government's Health Advisor, Alberto Martínez, responsible for the situation.

Health Counselor Alberto Martínez has explained that an investigation is under way into whether the expired hexavalent vaccine was also administered to 29 other people, although he has anticipated that it may be errors in registration, although he has stressed that the incidence of vaccines is "channelled" and that it is now necessary to clarify what happened. 

The mother of a baby who received a dose of the expired Hexabalente vaccine regrets that this situation causes her "insecurity" because she has always thought that Osakidetza is doing everything right. She claims that she has been apologized and that the minor has been summoned to be vaccinated again.

The Deputy Minister of Health, Lore Bilbao, has explained in the "Egun On" program of ETB1 that they wanted to send a "clear message" to the families and asked for reports to do so. When they were waiting for them, EH Bildu made the matter public. "If they knew 10 days earlier, why didn't they do anything? In this case we knew, but what would happen if we hadn't known?"

By territory, there was a 3.2 per cent year-on-year increase in Álava, with 547 births; in Bizkaia there was a 4.7 per cent decrease in Bizkaia with 1,616 births; and in Gipuzkoa there was an increase of 5.5 per cent with 1,129 births.

In addition, the Basque Health Service will this week call the 78 people who are believed to have received expired tetrabalent and triple viral vaccines.

Today, January 15, 2026, the Government will decide whether the conditions for attending tomorrow's meeting of the Joint Transfer Commission are in place; the doctors in Osakidetza will have a second day of strike, after yesterday's, to demand their own status; and the farmers and farmers in Hego Euskal Herria will make a tractor march towards Biriatu. 

The Medical Union has no intention of fighting this battle with the Ministry of Health and continues to proclaim its own status. No Navarra, the Department of Health reports that unemployment has continued at 2.83%. Ouskadi indicates that the follow-up has been 19.23% in the morning shift and 8.26% in the afternoon shift.

Osakidetza has stressed the importance of knowing the symptoms and asking for help if they continue over time. It has reminded Basque society that in Osakidetza's mental health network there are 1,600 professionals who are committed to "helping those who need it". 

Since the start of the campaign, a total of 17,465 cases of influenza have been recorded in Osakidetza hospitals, with 2,274 hospitalizations and 74 ICU income. 

This has been reported by the Medical Union of the Basque Country in a note. The two strike days will take place this week, together with several rallies in Bilbao and Vitoria. 

The Health Adviser, Alberto Martínez, has recalled that the Framework Statute establishing the framework for statutory workers' relations "is the exclusive competence of the Ministry of Health, which must take it to the Council of Ministers and then to Congress for approval". In this regard, he has said that the Department of Health is in a position to negotiate "everything that comes out of the Statutory Framework".

The advance of the flu and the Christmas stop have reduced blood donations and forced the call to intensify: it takes about 400 a day to ensure health activity.

After three consecutive weeks of declines in the cases detected, Osakidetza does not expect a "major upturn" for these days, as explained by the Director of Health Care, Koldo Berganzo, who believes that, following the experience this year, vaccination centres will be launched in the three ACV territories in the coming years.

The staff of the ambulances in Gipuzkoa may be subrogated in the Public Health System under the same conditions as before "until the corresponding places have been stabilized by OPE", and may remain in the company but in another workplace.
