President Andrés Manuel López Obrador mentioned that regardless of the efforts made throughout his administration, “we nonetheless would not have the medical specialists that the nation wants,” as a result of through the neoliberal interval there was a dedication to denationalise well being providers.
He as soon as once more thanked the federal government and other people of Cuba for the help offered to Mexico by sending practically a thousand specialists in several fields of medication, who’re working in probably the most distant areas of the nation, resembling Guadalupe Tepeyac and Benemérito de las Américas, in Chiapas.

The results of neoliberal well being insurance policies, he confused, is that “at the moment we nonetheless would not have the specialists that the nation wants, regardless of what we’ve carried out. It is rather critical, think about not having the medical doctors that the nation wants.
“Properly, that’s the great injury attributable to neoliberal insurance policies in these 36 years that we’re speaking about, the place they have been solely involved in revenue, the place the federal government was solely on the service of minorities who devoted themselves to creating juicy companies beneath the safety of public energy.”

Who’s going to go as a pediatric specialist to work in Guadalupe Tepeyac, up there in Comitán, or there on the border with Guatemala, in Benemérito de las Américas, the place there’s one other hospital? Are a pediatrician, an anesthesiologist going to go there?”
With Cuba, he mentioned, there’s a help program. “They endure from an unjust blockade and we, as a free, impartial, sovereign nation, don’t agree with this blockade. There’s a superb relationship of cooperation and these medical doctors have helped us rather a lot. They’re there within the mountains of Nayarit and the place they’re most wanted, as a result of within the cities there are in fact extra medical doctors and specialists. I’m not questioning the specialists, I perceive them, they’ve households, their kids must go to high school, there within the rural areas it isn’t really easy.”
