- Regional demonstrations also drew hundreds to thousands in Murcia, Cartagena, Lorca and Gijón, where civic platforms and unions called for stronger public provision.
- Andalusian protests were fueled by long waiting lists, staff shortages and anger over errors in the breast‑cancer screening program, with participants opposing externalizations and privatization.
- Galician unions CIG‑Saúde, CSIF, CCOO and UGT have registered a primary‑care strike for November 26 affecting all categories in health centers and urgent care points, while the doctors’ union O’Mega announced additional stoppages on November 27–28.
- The contested Sergas plan would convert family‑medicine vacancies into FEAP posts with mandatory on‑calls and explore MIR‑equivalent training for non‑EU doctors; medical societies and medical colleges have demanded the proposal’s withdrawal.
