The president of the Society of Resident Physicians (Somir) of Vargas Hospital, Carlos Prosperi, said that Venezuela does not need the presence of these doctors, what he needs, according to him, "is that health professionals provide them with medical supplies."

He also denounced that "these doctors will be given a salary that ranges between $1,500/$1,800 a month when Venezuelan doctors charge five dollars."

"The doctors who are currently arriving have not shown degrees and do not speak our language," indicating that six of these doctors are already working at Vargas. "We do not know with what intention they arrive," he said.

He said that "others arrived at the hospital in Macuto but there are 15 who came to the country (...) The other doctors do not know where they are."

On the other hand, Mauro Zambrano. representative of the Union of Hospitals and Clinics, stressed that it is not necessary to bring doctors from outside, "here there is in spite of the diaspora (...) Deep down they want to show that health workers do nothing".
