The councilor of this training, Gloria Martín, has regretted that in the middle of phase 3 of the de-escalation, the activity has not yet recovered in 11 of the clinics located in the municipal area, which is generating waiting lists of almost 20 days in health centers and travel to those affected The councilor of Izquierda Unida-Verdes in Lorca, Gloria Martín, has today denounced waiting lists of up to 19 days in some Primary Care centers of the municipality such as the one in Sutullena, which since last March also serves users of Aguaderas , Campo López, Tiata, Cazalla, Purias and La Listen, whose reference centers remain closed by order of the Ministry of Health because of COVID-19.

The same fate runs for the residents of Campillo, Morata, La Campana, Marchena or El Consejero, who are also being forced to move to other parts of the municipality to receive health care with the consequent saturation of the health centers in La Viña, Torrecilla or San Diego. Martín regretted that in the middle of phase 3 of the de-escalation, activity has not yet recovered in 11 of the health centers and clinics located in the municipality of Lorca, which is generating important waiting lists and displacements for those affected.

In this regard, the councilor of IU-Verdes has censured the management of the regional government in relation to the recovery of normality in essential public services that are within its competence. To the thread, Martín has criticized that the Ministry is unloading in the City council the responsibility and the cost of executing the adaptation works tending to guarantee the safety and protection of professionals and users, and that this serves as an excuse to punish the population without the reopening of peripheral clinics, thus failing to fulfill its obligation to provide this essential service. Waiting lists are also being primed with users who are pending critical diagnostic tests.

For this reason, Martín has demanded that the Murcian Health Service modify its criteria to attend only to demands related to Covid19, from cancer patients or from the emergency services. The councilor of IU-Verdes considers that the situation in which the waiting lists have remained after the paralysis of consultations, tests and operations due to the coronavirus pandemic is "very worrying", which is why she has demanded to increase the number of staff to face this problem.
