New day of protest for the social and health workers of the Monserrato Polyclinic .

They have pitched tents under the regional health department, in via Roma in Cagliari, and are asking for work continuity and also stabilization after years of sacrifices to help out in hospitals during the Covid period.

The 36 precarious workers, in the cold and with the rain that wet the tents which were also visited by mice, continue their battle, "to the bitter end", until they get answers from politics.

«We have been replaced, used and we are tired - they repeat - We contributed to the fight against Covid, worked hard and often in disastrous conditions. They called us heroes and promised us protection which, in truth, never arrived. Our event is the banner of our love for our company, a company for which many have spent energy, strength and professionalism. We shook hands with people sick with Covid, afraid of having to die alone, far from their beloved family and their home. We have maintained adequate basic care and helped hosts of nurses and doctors. We were scared too - they observe - And now we are being made fun of twice, even by those who had promised us continuity of work".

After the visit of the President of the Region in pectore Alessandra Todde and the exponent of the progressives Francesco Agus, some patients who knew them personally and wanted to show their solidarity also stopped by. «I was hospitalized for a month in the cardiology department of the Polyclinic - says one person - I know some of them. I saw their commitment every day and every night when it was necessary to be close to patients, the elderly and those who needed support. Professionalism like this, which has given so much to the hospital, cannot be thrown away."
