The hangover from the massive demonstration -250,000 people, according to the Government Delegation- in favor of public health was tinged with political content with the two main parties on the left, PSOE and Más Madrid.

Both tried to capitalize and transform the strength of the streets for the second time in the last three months against the Government of Díaz Ayuso

into an electoral mobilization .

Yesterday, hours after the protest, the activity of its spokespersons had the health sector as its protagonist.

The leader of Más Madrid, Mónica García, presented in the Assembly register

a non-legal proposal urging the Community of Madrid to hire for four years all resident internal specialists

who are close to completing specialized health training in region.

And the general secretary of the PSOE-M, Juan Lobato, held a meeting with professionals from the Guadarrama Hospital and today he is visiting the Arroyomolinos health center, with problems in Pediatrics.

In fact, the regional spokesperson for Más Madrid positioned the May elections almost as a plebiscite: "You have to choose between Health or Ayuso."

«She is the main instigator of the strike.

It has put the alma mater of our crown jewel in a blind alley", García pointed out in statements to the media, after stating that the Community of Madrid should try to make Primary Care "attractive" and "sexy"

so that professionals decide to stay in Madrid

when they finish the MIR.

During his visit to Guadarrama, Lobato stressed that if the PSOE won the regional elections, his first measure would be "a law so that there are always complete medical teams in health centers" because it is time for "politicians to be up to the task » of the needs of the health system.

"

The maturity of Madrid society in its defense of public health is admirable

, now it's time to see how we politicians respond," remarked the general secretary of the PSOE-M.

Also yesterday there was a new meeting between the strike committee, headed by Amyts, and the Ministry of Health with opposing positions that again distance the agreement between the parties.

From the regional government they assure that

the union "has taken down with new requests"

which include that as of June 30 doctors do not process sick leave and that the supplements of the Primary improvement plan remain in force -3,800 euros per year in Family Medicine and 3,300 in Pediatrics.

And also that a linear increase of 400 euros per month be added, 500 for positions that are difficult to cover in the afternoon and another 500 in health centers with a shortage of professionals.

The representatives of the doctors indicate that the linear rise was "a commitment" by the Community of Madrid in the document to call off the strike of September 2020,

after the pandemic, "which was never fulfilled" and in which a figure was collected of 479 euros.

In that same agreement, an incentive for the afternoon shift in places with difficult coverage of 25% was included and, according to the representatives of Amyts, the new proposal they propose is that this bonus be 10%.

"They have only transferred it to figures," they point out.

Yesterday, the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, on a trip to Israel, defended the management of her Government with "the second best Health in all of Europe."

"

The only thing that could be seen in the demonstration is precisely the frustration of the left, which the majority of Spanish society rejects

," said the popular leader.
