Twenty three years after the “shame” of Leros, when the inhumane committal conditions for patients of the mental hospital had shocked the public opinion worldwide and offended Greeks’ sensibility, the “ghost” of the deplorable conditions in asylums, prisons and mental institutions is coming back. In a critical moment for the country’s welfare system, when reports of dereliction multiply, Médecins du Monde of Greece feel obliged to defend in deed the right to dignity of the Greek Society’s “humble and despised” who are nowadays neglected.
Médecins du Monde launch a support campaign and appeal to Greeks’ sensibility in order to collect specific items of primary necessity such as:
• Rice
• Legumes
• Pasta
They also call upon their fellow-citizens for financial support that will enable them to purchase antibiotics, antipyretics, antidiarrheal drugs as well as medical consumables (gauzes, bandages, syringes, needles).
