The vice president of the Democratic Party, Oriola Pampuri, spoke about the current situation with the low number of doctors and nurses.
She said that Albania has the lowest number of doctors and nurses in the region. In a statement to the media, Pampuri brought the statistics published by the WHO, where it is emphasized that the number of doctors decreased by 15% from 2018 compared to 2020.
According to the PD deputy, this is due to the lack of encouraging policies and the increase in the health budget.
Pompuri emphasized that these data and this reality clearly reflect the model of the Rama government since 2013, which, according to her, although it publicly deceived with propaganda that it would offer Albanians free healthcare, made the treatment of Albanians twice as expensive when he starts his first governing mandate.
Oriola Pompuri's statement:
Albania still remains the country with the lowest number of doctors and nurses in the region.
According to the World Health Organization, our country ranks last in the region for financial support in health, compared to countries in the region and Turkey.
In fact, and during the Covid-19 pandemic at the height of the global emergency, where every country prioritized the lives of citizens, the increase in the number of beds, services and public money, Albania remained last again.
This did not happen because the country lacks human resources, the level of taxes, but it happened because of mismanagement and lack of will and bad governance on the part of the majority.
The WHO states that the number of doctors decreased by 15%, from 2018 compared to 2020. From 22 doctors per 10 thousand inhabitants to 18.8 doctors per 10 thousand inhabitants, although the Covid-19 pandemic also started in that year.
But also when it comes to nurses and health service workers, from year to year we have a decrease in their number due to the lack of encouraging policies and the increase in the budget for health.
Within a few months after a fire, the causes and dimensions of which are still unknown, the Emergency Department of the QSUT Hospital was put out of action.
These data and this reality clearly reflect the model of the Rama government since 2013, which, although with full-blown propaganda, publicly deceived that it would offer free healthcare to Albanians, in fact made the treatment of Albanians twice as expensive when he starts his first governing mandate. Today, Albanians pay 2 times more money out of their pockets than the citizens of Kosovo, Serbia, Bosnia and wider, and almost 6 times more than the EU countries.
On the other hand, the Municipal Council of Tirana has increased the annual fee for registration in kindergartens and nurseries. Instead of the country's largest municipality having a real program for young families, for children, which should be stimulating with free services and the provision of other facilities, in fact the opposite is happening.
This model is also in the governance of the country where there is a lack of facilitating policies for children and the family.
Meanwhile, the tax money of the Albanians does not go to more health services, more new hospitals, to financially motivate more doctors and nurses, as they deserve, but goes to tens of millions of euros in damage to health, where according to KLSH, in abusive and corrupt PPPs, in hospitals that never finish being reconstructed, or in those that catch fire and are not remembered to be put back into working order.
In this situation, the only losers are the Albanians, who are deceived by this corrupt government that abuses and deceives every day.
The time has come for this situation to change and for citizens to be treated with dignity as they deserve.
The time has come for a policy and health policies that put the citizen first and not the pocket of the next oligarch who will benefit from the concession or the drug contract with the hospital.
It is time for every official, starting from the Minister of Health and following, to bear responsibility and face justice for any violation, abuse, or abuse of duty that may have been committed during the exercise of public office. Impunity in Health must end!
