The President of the Republic, Nicolas Maduro, referred on Tuesday to the importance of strengthening the national health system before the privatization plans by the right wing.
“The knowledge of health by thousands of comprehensive physicians thanks to the Cuba-Venezuela agreement, are for the life, and never for the commodification of something so fundamental,” said the Head of State from the Military Academy of the National Guard at Fort Tiuna, Caracas, during a workshop with 590 spokesmen of the Comprehensive Community Health Areas (ASIC) as part of the Barrio Adentro 100% program.
“Merchandise vs. Humans!. Are they going to be more powerful, with their ideology of anti-nature and anti-human selfishness, of believing that health is a merchandise, or are us going to be more powerful in the construction of a new health system that puts at the center the right to life? “asked the President.
In this regard he added, “if we are not careful, will come Ramos Allup and gets us privatized the entire Barrio Adentro system; if we neglect then comes Julio Borges and privatizes all the Integral Diagnostic Centers (CDI); if we are not careful they will disown the graduate titles of our comprehensive physicians, and will expel all medical professionals who come from Cuba. Therefore we have to work in the streets improving and building, rectifying all that has to be rectified
