Πληθαίνουν τα
δημοσιεύματα στον διεθνή Τύπο που αναφέρονται στην αναγκαιότητα λειτουργίας του
Νοσοκομείου της Σαντορίνης με αφορμή την δημιουργία καμπάνιας για το θέμα και
την συγκέντρωση ηλεκτρονικών υπογραφών στην σελίδα : https://secure.avaaz.org/en/petition/The_Greek_Government_Open_the_Hospital_of_Santorini_island/?sfPCkib
Ο τίτλος της
καμπάνιας ονομάζεται «The Greek Government: Open the Hospital of Santorini
island» και μέχρι στιγμής πάει πολύ καλά από πλευράς συγκέντρωσης υπογραφών.
Σύμφωνα με την
ανάρτηση του reekreporter για το θέμα,
Since 2011, a brand new hospital is constructed on
Santorini island but has not been put into operation yet, due to the Greek
economic crisis and the lack of political will to solve the problem.
Santorini is one of the most famous & touristic
islands in Greece, known for it’s beauty, voted several times as the most
beautiful island in the world by travel magazines and organizations. 15,000
locals stay on the island all year around and aproximately 2 million tourists
visit the island every season.
There are only basic healthcare services, provided by
one public health center and one private (and very expensive) medical center.
In case of emergency incidents, patients have to be flown with the municipality
airplane to Athens or nearby Crete hospitals. Local people are deprived of any
sufficient healthcare, women are forced to move to Athens in order to give
birth, people are lacking fundamental security in their lives, because there is
no hospital on the island.
The new hospital that remains closed is fully equipped
with maternity rooms, operating rooms, emergency surgery rooms, exam labs and
many more, fully ready to work.
