There has been a lack of medical care in Greek detention centers since July. The responsible organization asks for leniency. Ambulances that take several hours to get to the scene - horror stories like these keep coming out of Greek migrant camps where thousands of people live. Since the beginning of July, the medical care situation in many camps has apparently worsened. The Greek health service EODY ended all medical measures on site at the end of June. The reason: the EU-funded “Philos II” program, which was intended to ensure primary medical care in the camps, is coming to an end. According to the EU Commission, the new “Hippocrates” program should lead to an improvement in the care situation, but so far it has mainly brought uncertainty and concern. NGOs and asylum seekers are sounding the alarm: since the beginning of July, there has been no medical staff present in many camps, according to those affected from different parts of the country. Thousands of people now have hardly any access to medical care. read more
