Contrary to the “blind plan” of the social security budget, which wants to impose on them 250 million euros in savings per year, biologists announced on Wednesday that they will stop feeding the national file with Covid screening tests (SI -DEP) from Thursday.

The examination of the Secu budget in the Assembly, interrupted by the use of 49.3 on the “revenue part”, was resumed on Wednesday evening in the “expenses” section, where the disputed article appears.
