Pharmacies on strike March 10-11
Pharmacists in Greece have called a 48-hour nationwide strike on March 10 and 11 in response to demands by representatives of the troika to end restrictions on sales of non-prescription medicines, to introduce changes in the ownership of private pharmacies and to extend opening working hours.
The decision was taken at a special meeting of the board of the Panhellenic Pharmacists Association (PFS) following a relevant proposal by the President of the Association Kyriakos Theodosiades according to ANA-MPA
"The 48-hour strike is the beginning of a strong reaction and resistance by pharmacists to the pressure of troika and all those who require the dismantling of the pharmaceutical care," PFS said.
The PFS board will meet again on March 11 to decide upon next moves.
