the controversy

Cagliari's maternity ward closed and reopened in one day: "Todde should leave healthcare to those with the skills."

The Santissima Trinità department was closed due to a shortage of pediatricians and reopened after an emergency meeting. Cugliara (FIALS): "This has been a long-standing problem. Why wasn't action taken sooner? A complete lack of planning."
