Morocco Doctors Protest Vacation Cancellation Amid Health Crisis

According to health personnel, these "symbolic" demonstrations have started since Tuesday, August 4 in the health facilities where they practice their profession.

In a circular dated Monday, August 3, the minister demanded that doctors and nurses who have already taken a vacation return to their post within a maximum of 48 hours.

In a statement signed by the independent union of public sector doctors, the medical corps opposes this cancellation of their summer vacation, and demands compensation allowances that will wipe out what they consider to be the "financial and psychological damage" of this decision which they describe as "improvised".
