Health Ministry Warns Against Attacks on Doctors
It has been indicated that attacking doctors and nurses within healthcare facilities is considered a criminal offense punishable under Egyptian law with strict penalties, including imprisonment and fines of up to 50,000 Egyptian pounds, especially if weapons or tools are used in the assault. The Ministry of Health confirmed that the law sanctions insulting healthcare workers or threatening them while they are performing their duties. Protecting medical personnel is part of ensuring the continuity of healthcare services with dignity and safety. Emphasis was also placed on the fact that handling complaints should be done through official channels, not through acts of violence. The recent incident in Kerdasa underscores a recurring pattern of assaults that highlight the need to protect healthcare workers. In response, the ministry is intensifying efforts to improve the work environment, develop medical staff, and reduce the outflow of skilled professionals.
