Overstretched healthcare system
In the meantime, the country is still recording contagion records, with an incidence of more than 3,000 cases per 100,000 inhabitants over fourteen days. Hospital services are under strain, with 23.5% of intensive care beds occupied by Covid patients.
The urgency for the unions of nursing staff is to reduce the traffic jams within the public health system, overworked and understaffed.

General practitioners denounce chain work, sometimes with the load of a hundred patients a day.
