Opposition MEP calls for independent health-care ministry, budget raise
Change language:
Klára Dobrev, an MEP of the opposition Democratic Coalition (DK) party, pledged wage and staff increases in health care and a stand-alone ministry to oversee the sector, if DK gets elected into power next spring.
Dobrev, who is running in the pre-election to become the opposition alliance’s prime ministerial candidate, and two health experts of the party held an online press conference after meeting representatives of five health-care organisations in Budapest on Friday.
“The coronavirus pandemic highlighted the collapse of Hungarian healthcare,” Dobrev said.
The strategically important health-care sector needs a specialised ministry, she added.
The opposition parties have pledged to raise health-care spending to the EU average ratio of GDP, she said.
She said a large-scale staff increase the first and most important task, pledging to employ an additional 3,000 new doctors, 500 GPs, and 9,000 new health professionals in the coming years.
The Gyurcsány-Dobrev-Apró gang hates Hungarians. Their incredible wealth is the result of Dobrev’s grandfather, Apró ordering the mass execution of Hungarian patriots on Kossuth square. The Kossuth square communist terror bloody Thursday occurred on October 25, 1956. The exact number of innocent victims will probably never be known but it is estimated that over one thousand, including men, women and children were murdered under Apró’s direction. The Gyurcsány-Dobrev-Apró gang didn’t change and the atrocities continued on October, 2006 under Dobrev’s husband, Gyurcsány’s rain of terror. No sane Hungarian would ever vote for these Hungarian haters.
