The internal physicians at the Mohammed VI University Hospital in Marrakech are continuing their protests, demanding the payment of their overdue salaries and financial entitlements, which have been outstanding for more than six months. The doctors describe this situation as "unacceptable," emphasizing that it has a detrimental effect on their professional and social circumstances.
The protesting medical staff have held demonstrations within the healthcare facility while also boycotting several departments and services; however, they have ensured that emergency, intensive care, and vital services continue to operate to maintain patient care. The doctors have expressed that the delay in receiving their payments has become an increasing burden, particularly in light of rising living costs, and they are urging the relevant authorities to intervene promptly to resolve this issue.
Moreover, the protesters have signaled that they may escalate their actions if their demands continue to be overlooked. In the meantime, there are expectations of opening dialogue channels between the representatives of the physicians and the hospital management to address and mitigate the ongoing crisis.
