"It is unacceptable": SNS professionals demand answers from the minister in Coimbra

Notícias de Coimbra15 September 2026 at 09:32

National Health Service (SNS) health professionals held a protest initiative in Coimbra to demand answers from the health minister. The action was marked by slogans, with "Health is a right. Without it, nothing works!" being one of the main banners chanted during the event.

The professionals consider the current situation "unacceptable," denouncing problems that affect the functioning of the SNS and working conditions. The demonstration aims to pressure authorities to take concrete measures to resolve the issues affecting the public health system.

The initiative took place in Coimbra and brought together various health professionals representing SNS workers. The protest comes in a context of growing dissatisfaction with the conditions of the national health system and the lack of responses from the government.

Why this matters

SNS health professionals in Coimbra are demanding answers from the authorities, warning of problems that directly affect the quality of healthcare provided to the population. This demonstration may signal a worsening of labor relations in the sector and broader concerns about the functioning of the public health system in the region and the country.
