In response, the IMSS-Bienestar announced plans to distribute over <strong>500,000 medications<\/strong> and additional supplies this month. This move is part of a broader strategy aimed at addressing supply issues in tandem with federal government agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Since June 30, more than <strong>three million medical supplies<\/strong> have been dispatched to health units across the state, adhering to established supply orders. The IMSS-Bienestar emphasized its commitment to <strong>maintaining communication<\/strong> with health personnel in Puebla, assuring them of their readiness to meet their ongoing demands.<\/p>\n<h2>Background of Protests<\/h2>\n<p>These proactive measures come after a <strong>partial work strike<\/strong> organized by the National Union of Workers of the Ministry of Health (SNSA). Hospital staff from the General Hospitals of the North and the South participated in these mobilizations to voice their grievances about <strong>previous agreements<\/strong> that had not been honored, as well as the dire conditions under which they are expected to operate.<\/p>\n<div class=\"visual__image\"><picture><source  media=\"(min-width: 1000px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 580px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 350px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 80px)\"\/><img alt=\"The Ministry of Health of\" class=\"global-image\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"low\" height=\"1366\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752225595_814_IMSS-Bienestar-will-be-sending-over-500000-medications-to-Puebla-following.jpg\" width=\"2048\"\/><\/picture><figcaption class=\"article-figcaption-img\">The Ministry of Health of Puebla reported on the distribution of medicines in hospitals in Puebla.

Their concerns revolve around the <strong>failure to comply with past agreements<\/strong>, the apparent shortage of work materials, and the inadequate conditions for providing patient care.<\/p>\n<p>The secretary general of section 25 of the SNSA, <strong>Julio Alfredo Garc\u00eda<\/strong>, reported that these grievances have echoed through all <strong>ten sanitary jurisdictions<\/strong> and <strong>52 public hospitals<\/strong> in the state. Workers displayed posters highlighting the precarious conditions affecting the delivery of healthcare services. Garc\u00eda pointed out that the only issue addressed thus far has been the <strong>removal of the personnel operation director<\/strong>, leaving the majority of their demands unaddressed.<\/p>\n<p>If actionable solutions aren\u2019t presented within two weeks, healthcare personnel have warned that they may resort to <strong>closing hospital areas<\/strong>, prioritizing emergency care to safeguard the lives of their patients.<\/p>\n<div class=\"visual__image\"><picture><source  media=\"(min-width: 1000px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 580px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 350px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 80px)\"\/><img alt=\"IMSS-Bienestar informed that he made\" class=\"global-image\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"low\" height=\"1366\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1752225596_399_IMSS-Bienestar-will-be-sending-over-500000-medications-to-Puebla-following.jpg\" width=\"2048\"\/><\/picture><figcaption class=\"article-figcaption-img\">IMSS-Bienestar reported that he made inputs and medications to hospitals after protests.

The crisis has also led to the <strong>suspension of surgeries<\/strong>, attributed to insufficient resources in various institutions.<\/p>\n<p>On social media, the Ministry of Health of Puebla confirmed, in collaboration with the IMSS-Bienestar, that over <strong>500,000 pieces of healing supplies<\/strong> have been dispatched to <strong>nine state hospitals<\/strong>. However, healthcare workers insist that <strong>structural solutions<\/strong> are crucial and demand more than just immediate fixes.<\/p>\n<p>The Government of Puebla maintains that through the Ministry of Health, they are working closely with IMSS-Bienestar to address the pressing needs of local hospitals. As both sides navigate this critical juncture, the hope remains for sustainable solutions that not only alleviate immediate concerns but also reflect a commitment to enhancing the overall healthcare framework in Puebla.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/category\/general\/\" rel=\"dofollow\">General News &#8211; 2<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Health authorities reported on the distribution of medicines in Puebla.
