La portavoz de Sanidad del GPP, Elvira Velasco durante su intervención en la Comisión de Sanidad y Consumo


· The GPP Health spokeswoman, Elvira Velasco, underlines that the financing of health professionals, pharmaceutical policy and patients need a strong and focused minister: “Spain does not deserve a more pending Ministry of the Bilateral Bureau than of Health "
· It requires Minister Illa to turn to health management and not prioritize Catalonia "to the detriment" of the health system: "With a Ministry without Social Services, Consumption or Equality, you no longer have excuses for not taking care of Health."
· It proclaims that Spain has "a great national health system recognized outside our borders", and calls to convene a monographic Interterritorial Council in view of the need for "a new financing model".
· It offers the Government "a constructive opposition, but always attentive and vigilant against the risks of the Executive's tolerance with the unsupportive and destabilizing initiatives of the independentists."
· He calls the minister to go to the Health Commission in Congress to explain the management of his Ministry on the coronavirus, and supports all prevention and support actions for health centers and institutions.
· He warns that in Spain there are more than eight million people over 65, 2,800,000 people over 80 and more than 500,000 nonagenarians who “hope that the coordination of Social and Health Services is a reality, even if they are in Different ministries. ”
· Among the pending challenges, the “improvement” of the management and planning of health professionals stands out, which solves the deficit of medical specialists, and the importance of Spain leading the European Cancer Strategy.
· It rejects the “sad and worrisome” announcement of an MIR for Catalonia “as a toll for the independence groups”, which will end up “drastically” cutting out the opportunities of Catalan doctors in training and experience in other communities.
