Exactly my thoughts... this is complete fake news and complete propaganda from the Government Coalition (all Left Wing). Health system is completely broken the public Hospitals don't have enough resources or money to threat the patients with dignity, people still live with very low salaries and high prices of goods, The industry is still very weak unlike its mentioned in the article etc.. etc... Honestly seeing these articles makes me really sad.

>Health system is completely broken No need to be so dramatic. Compared with countries with a similar economy, our system is objectively very good. Independent reports will back me up.

  There are plenty of reasons to be dramatic. The portuguese national health service debt blew up since the current government entered office due to their expenditure captivation push in a stark contrast with the debt reduction push enforced by the austerity program. Consequently some health services fail even to keep skeleton crews of medical teams to remain operational. Medical suppliers are complaining about the goverent's increased payment delays and nurse unions are on months-long strike demanding additional staff to mitigate their overwork problem and also that the current government actually puts to practice the salary increases he announced some months ago.
