I don’t regret my Twitter posts referring to the material aired in Fakty TVN; I did not betray any secrets in it – emphasized former Health Minister Adam Niedzielski in an interview for “Fakt”.
Sunday “no regrets”. How does it defend itself?
Niedzielski was asked in an interview if he regretted his Twitter posts that contributed to his resignation as health minister.
I have no regrets. To understand this situation, a broader context is needed. There are recipe limits in the background. These limits had a very specific purpose. We are witnessing in other countries what has already been termed an epidemic of abuse of painkillers and psychotropic drugs. What we used to associate with the drug industry is shifting to the drug trade
– emphasized the former health minister.
“The electoral climate was not conducive to that.”
He pointed out that the police in Poland seized more than 350 kilos of illegal drugs last year.
I wanted to respond to this with a challenge, because if we don’t respond, in a few years we will see images like the US, where a very large percentage of young people are high on drugs. I had to make tough decisions. However, I do not think that the electoral climate was conducive to this
said Niedzielski.
Why did he make the doctor’s records public?
When asked if it was necessary to attack a doctor in such a situation and make his data public, the former health minister replied that he wanted to “make a very clear distinction between sensitive, medical data that speaks about the state of health , about a specific drug, from the fact that we monitored and only checked that the prescription was dispensed.”
It is a drug group with more than 400 items. You can’t even guess or find out exactly what drug it is. In addition, with respect for the data of both the patient and the doctor, we only checked whether prescriptions were actually issued. Since I receive a very serious signal, because TVN has said that it is not possible to prescribe medicines in Poznań, as Minister of Health, I immediately order my subordinates to check whether it is possible to issue such a prescription to write
Niedzielski emphasized.
On the one hand, the National Health Fund called the hospital directors and asked if there was a problem, and on the other hand, a doctor in the TVN material said that he could not issue this prescription. However, it turned out that he had issued such a prescription, so it was a lie
– added.
This is the message from the former minister:
