We demand a U-turn for Paolo Merlo, so that the right to health care is guaranteed as for all Sardinian citizens”.
Mayor Fabio Lai has, responded to the appeal of the minority, calling an urgent city council, by writing a letter to the president of the Social Health Conference Roberto Ragnedda and asking him to be present during the session. “It is an unprecedented state of emergency but everyone’s help is needed – declares the mayor –. I hope that those who are on sick leave can recover as soon as possible in order to help the city and colleagues who, with great sacrifice and a sense of duty, are carrying out the services themselves. The ATS system that has centralized resources and personnel management has totally failed. To have a chance it is necessary that the ASLs be restored, but with managerial powers ”.
