The war in GESS is raging and the “camps” have begun to clear up, although in their entirety those involved declare their support for the System and its philosophy. The scene yesterday was explosive from early in the morning, as all those involved paraded from TV and radio stations exchanging fire, while until the afternoon parties, organizations and other bodies issued announcements in defense of the System. As expected, the submission of amendments to the basic legislation of GESS by the president of EDEK in Parliament, turned the fire of the majority of those involved against Marinos Sizopoulos.
On the part of the Government, the President of the Republic put an end to what has been said in the last twenty-four hours about intentions, making it clear that he will not accept any intervention that would alter the philosophy of a system unanimously adopted by the House of Representatives. At the same time, DISY and AKEL were exchanging fire, both declaring allegiance to the philosophy of the System. DIKO for the first time in the last few days through its deputies stated that changes in the philosophy of GESS will not be supported, while the tension within EDEK after the submission of the amendment of the legislation by Marinos Sizopoulos, became even greater yesterday, with the general secretary of DEOK to talk about “big doctors who were left out of GESS to be able to evade taxes”.
OAY and organized patients, made new efforts to explain the reasons why the amendment submitted to Parliament and provides that non-GESS doctors will have the right to prescribe within the System, alters the philosophy of the System, while putting it at risk of collapse .
