The mayor recovers the demand for a Faculty of Medicine for the University of Vigo: “It is not understood that contributing a quarter of the students, much more than in other communities, there is no training; it is once more the centralism of Santiago, I do not accept it,” he said.
There is an agreement between the three Galician universities whereby the final year can be taught at any university hospital in the community. Thus, in Vigo there are currently 100 sixth-year students with 25 teachers, the same places as in Coruña, while in Santiago there are 80 and 30 in the rest.
Caballero considers that the agreement is not being fulfilled“the agreed hospital training is not being respected, it is Santiago who has to qualify more teachers”.
This will be communicated to a group of medical students from Vigo who invited him today to give a talk at the San Agustín residence hall in Santiago.
