Patients’ coalition: “In Romania, the disease does not kill you, but the system”

“In fact, it is a firecracker thrown in the health system, in order not to see that we do not have medicines, that we die due to insufficient or non-existent treatments, that we do not have access to investigations, that we do not have a coherent health system with real policies. Normally, we also condemn this crime committed by those who provide services or products to the health system, because of them, patients have lost confidence in the health system, they are afraid to be hospitalized, precisely in order not to get these infections. nosocomial in hospitals “, says Cezar Irimia.

“The authorities did not react the same way when we, the chronic patients, sued the state to obtain a natural right guaranteed by the Constitution in court. We had 19 lawsuits that we have won since 2014. They did not have a reaction. Now, when these biocides are clearly a major problem in the health system, they have been found to be counterfeit, the reaction is major, tense, frantic, with dismissals, “I don’t think it’s a benefit for the health system. I repeat, it hurts me that the real problem remains, access to investigations and treatment,” the COPAC president explained.

“The Prime Minister should see the real problems in the system, not these biocides, which are also important and see that we, the patients, do not have treatments. Cancer patients lack 14 oncology in the free market and in hospitals, and the schemes It is more important that the health system be revived and brought afloat. The resignation or dismissal of the ministers is not a problem. So I can hold the post of minister tomorrow, and when I do it is difficult for me to resign (…). In Romania, it is not the disease that kills, but the health system “, concludes Cezar Irimia.
