Despite health protests extends throughout the Community of MadridCatalonia, Andalusia and Cantabria, Actually, Spain is not the only country facing a serious health crisis. All of Europe is going through a critical time, with no idea for now what the long-term consequences will be. Another country that is going through a very difficult time in its health is Great Britain, which is in a very difficult situation.

Nurses and ambulance workers have called for what may be the largest strike in the country’s history. The main reason this strike was called off was the cut in healthcare and waiting times. first Minister, Rishi Sunak, did not rule out calling the Army in a hypothetical case of a shortage of health personnel and an escalating situation due to the strike, which had been called throughout the month of December.

If you call the Army, Sunak will thus try to reach some sort of ‘firewall’ it will come in handy for avoiding a real social firebox. The UK is experiencing a time of extreme tension after the turbulent political situation it experienced this year, with the resignation of Boris Johnson, the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Liz Truss’ downfall after just seven weeks as prime ministerand non-election calls despite pressure from the opposition.

Germany and Portugal, too, are in trouble

In Germany, the situation was not very favorable either. Without reaching as many infected people as possible, hospitals were at their limits and there were barely any staff left to treat all these infected people. Germany’s health services have been disrupted for months and it only got worse with the arrival of winter, with only a few days remaining before the situation reached its worst forecast.

On the other hand, we find our neighbors on the west side, Portugal, which is also in dire straits. With queues of up to nine hours to be admitted to a hospital, and half a hundred withdrawals, health services were admitting exhaustion and calling for help to cope with a situation beyond their control. Unfortunately, Europe is starting to experience a very complex situation, and it cannot be ruled out that more countries may consider withdrawing the Army.
