She was dismissed by her government Poland The Minister of Health Adam Nijilski, because he broke medical confidentiality and disclosed personal information doctorbecause he criticized his bill.
“I have decided to accept the resignation of Health Minister Adam Nijilski,” Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki told reporters, clarifying that he would be replaced by parliamentarian from the nationalist, populist PiS party, Katarina Soika.
Nijilski had been criticized by Poland’s medical community for a reform he promoted that would have restricted the ability to prescribe drugs online. But he angered even members of his own party when he reported on Platform X on August 4 that one of the doctors he had criticized had prescribed psychotropic and pain-killing drugs for himself.
The Supreme National Chamber of Doctors told the prime minister that doctors no longer trusted the minister and informed prosecutors that he may have committed an offense by breaching medical confidentiality. Doctors were also threatening to go on strike.
The crisis came at a difficult time for the ruling party, which is preparing for the Parliamentary Elections of October 15 and Nijilski’s dismissal was considered a foregone conclusion for several days.
