Overview
- An official bulletin confirms Antonio Sanz will temporarily manage the Health Ministry after Juanma Moreno accepted Rocío Hernández’s resignation.
- The Junta limits the identified failures to roughly 2,000 women, about 1,800 linked to Hospital Virgen del Rocío, involving unjustified delays in notifying suspicious results.
- Moreno announces audits, a protocol overhaul, staffing reinforcements and a two‑month review of all affected patients, while publicly apologizing to those impacted.
- Patient advocates, including Sevilla group Amama, call the resignation belated and demand full explanations as protests grow outside SAS headquarters.
- Separate court investigations into emergency contracting practices at the Andalusian Health Service proceed, with former SAS chiefs and the current director summoned to testify in November.
