- Andalusia reports that 2,100 of 2,317 women with BI‑RADS 3 findings have completed follow‑up and 217 remain pending, with all tests due by November 30.
- Patient association Amama disputes the Junta’s tally, estimates roughly 4,000 affected and has lodged 25 patrimonial claims while reviewing hundreds more cases.
- The Junta says nearly 90% of the identified cases are tied to Sevilla’s Virgen del Rocío hospital, a concentration that unions and Amama question.
- Andalusia’s remediation plan sets deadlines for pending mammograms by November 15 and ultrasounds by November 30, updates screening leads across primary care and hospitals, and extends an AI pilot to all eight provinces.
