Workers at the Ikarian Hospital staged a work halt and protest against the transfer of one pediatrician to the General Hospital of Samos, citing critical staffing shortages. The protest is scheduled for Monday, November 11, with support from local parent groups and teachers’ unions. Hospital employees emphasize that forced relocations will not resolve the staffing crisis in island hospitals and are calling for immediate hiring of all vacant positions. The community is urged to join the demonstration at noon.
