Santiago, Chile, Oct 1, 2006 / 22:00 pm
The president of the Chilean Bishops’ Conference, Bishop Alejandro Goic, has reiterated his call to resolve a strike by the country’s health care workers that has paralyzed the country’s health care system for more than three weeks.
Last week Bishop Goic met with Ricardo Fabrega, of the Ministry of Health, and Roberto Alarcon, president of the National Confederation of Health Care Workers, in order to foster discussions aimed at overcoming a labor dispute.
Bishop Goic said that the Church would do all it could to encourage both parties to come to an agreement and end the strike.
