The Greek government is launching free evening surgeries on the 28th to address long wait times in public hospitals. This initiative has sparked intense debate with the opposition party PASOK, particularly over proposed amendments regarding health workers’ classifications. Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis criticized PASOK for allegedly reverting to populist tactics, while PASOK representatives argue that the plan merely offers superficial solutions, asserting that 35% of surgical rooms remain closed, thus failing to alleviate the underlying issues in the healthcare system.
