Stop Violence Against Medical Professionals
On behalf of the entire academic community of Poznan University of Medical Sciences and the staff of the University Hospitals in Poznan, we extend our deepest condolences to the family of Dr. Tomasz Solecki.
We are deeply shocked by the tragic events in Kraków. We stand firmly against all acts of aggression toward healthcare professionals.
As incidents threatening the safety of doctors, nurses, paramedics, and all medical personnel continue to rise, we urgently call for legislative measures to protect those who dedicate their lives to caring for others. We also call for mutual respect in our society and remind everyone that words, too, can fuel violence with devastating consequences.
We cannot and will not accept that hospitals—places of healing and saving lives—become environments of fear. We cannot and will not accept that individuals who serve patients with commitment and compassion should become victims of violence.
