About 300 demonstrators including students, disabled people, cancer patients, and citizens arrived in Cagliari from Sulcis for the "march for health" under the regional health department: the goal is to meet the regional councilor Armando Bartolazzi.
In the last few days, there has been a succession of meetings, leafleting, fundraisers to raise awareness among citizens and invite participation. Several meetings have been held to organize the protest but also to collect the various complaints of those who have been forced to chase doctors for months, or hope for a visit in a reasonable time.
The platform of today's protest is based on some points that can no longer be postponed: the state of abandonment of hospitals, the lack of medical and nursing staff, the many closed departments, the lack of emergency management, the many patients. "Patience is over," say the spokespersons.
