Doctors’ union says public hospitals are ‘germ-infested sieves’

Patients at Greek public hospitals are twice as likely to contract a life-threatening infection compared to their European counterparts because of understaffing and shortages in basic sanitation methods, the union of state hospital workers (POEDIN) warned on Tuesday.

Speaking to the press, POEDIN president Michalis Giannakos said that patients “are loosing the battle for life every single day because hospitals have become germ-infested sieves.”

Giannakis was speaking at a press conference after former right-wing LAOS MP Thanasis Plevris spent several days in critical condition due to an infection contracted during a routine operation.
