Campaign of the students of the last year of Medicine who claim because they cannot be received

The pandemic disrupted the plans of many around the world. The dreams that were waiting to be realized are varied and in terms of education an example are those students who this year were in the last year of their careers to be able to practice their profession and are still waiting for the moment to be able to perform.

That is why, faced with the distressing situation, the students of the last year of Medicine at the National University of La Plata put together a video that went viral to express their problems. They even fight to have the long-awaited title so they can be at the forefront of the battle against coronavirus.

“There are more than 200 boys ready to process their degree and be able to go out to face the pandemic. For more than 5 months they have not received news from the authorities of the Faculty or the Ministry of Health,” he told eldia.com Lucio Camusso, one of the promoters of the claim. In the video they recorded you can see a group of students making known the situation they are going through.

“Do you know why we students in the last year of health careers cannot graduate,” the video begins, and continues with different voices: “At UNLP alone we are 200 people who could be in a position to join the health system and the workforce of this pandemic. We are waiting for everything to return to normal so that we can conclude our careers. This situation is the same that occurs in all the faculties of the country. That is to say that during all of 2020 no doctor or That is why we want the relevant authorities to generate exceptional measures for this exceptional moment. And that we can be the professionals that we dream of and that people need. “

It ends with the students displaying posters with captions that read “We want our title” and “We want to help in this pandemic.”

According to what they told this newspaper, the idea came up through WhatsApp groups and social networks, and they managed to join forces with students from medical universities across the country who are going through the same situation. “Since the month of March, with the advent of the pandemic, the last practices to graduate and obtain the degree were suspended and since then we have been totally helpless and without any response from the relevant authorities,” said Camusso. He also added that “we believe that when we are in a health emergency, where health professionals are more than required, it should be a priority that we obtain the title.”
