Sweden is grappling with what the Social Democrats describe as the worst healthcare crisis since the 1990s.

The party demands that three ministers explain their actions in the face of rising healthcare challenges, including longer wait times, increased fees, and department closures.

Financial strain is evident, with a deficit of 1.7 billion SEK mentioned for the V"astra G"otaland region alone.

Concurrently, a Novus survey reveals that half of Swedes are anxious about the quality of healthcare and are urging the government to provide additional funding.

The V df"orbundet, represented by Sineva Ribeiro, voices concerns over deteriorating conditions, staff shortages, and the dire consequences of cuts, including patients dying while waiting for care.

Despite the government's pledge to reduce reliance on temporary staff and improve working conditions for permanent employees, the sector struggles with retaining and attracting talent.

With a 24 billion SEK deficit facing the regions, the future of healthcare funding remains uncertain, intensifying public worry.
