Mexican doctors protest medicine shortages as health ministry cites theft
Original: salud
Doctors in Mexico are protesting over shortages of medicines in public hospitals. In a notable response, the Ministry of Health acknowledged that part of the missing supply is being stolen from hospitals and sold outside, adding fuel to a dispute already charged by staff complaints over inadequate resources for patients.
Why now: The health ministry's admission that medicines are being stolen and resold has turned a routine labor protest into a national controversy.
