Moreno Names Antonio Sanz Health Chief as Andalusia Details Cancer Screening Fix

The appointment signals a move toward more overt political control of the response to screening failures.

Overview

  • After today’s cabinet meeting, the Junta will brief on a plan to repair breast, colon and cervical screening programs.
  • The package exceeds €12 million and includes an AI application for screenings plus special reinforcement units at Seville’s Hospital Muñoz Cariñanos.
  • The government has set a target for all affected women to receive a diagnosis by November 30.
  • Officials say most errors originated at Seville’s Virgen del Rocío, with protocol changes and adjustments planned at Virgen Macarena, Virgen de Valme and Málaga’s Virgen de la Victoria.
