Katarzyna Sójka accused Donald Tusk's government of manipulating public opinion after the brutal murder of a 37-year-old woman. She claimed that the prime minister directed attention to cybersecurity and the presidential veto to divert it away from issues related to child psychiatry. As she wrote, in the nineteen-minute speech of the head of the government, there were no words concerning psychiatry, therapy, the National Health Fund, or treatment; instead, he spoke about the internet, cybercrime, and blocking content. Sójka assessed that a free support hotline cannot replace systemic care, available spots in hospitals, or pharmacotherapy. She also accused the government of educational sabotage. In her opinion, the offer for children in "100 specifics" was limited to the elimination of homework and the removal of textbooks for the History and Citizenship subject, and the lack of obligations and boundaries negatively affected the development of children. The MP wrote that the Medical Fund, in which — as she reported — 8 billion zlotys were left, was reduced to 2 billion instead of receiving the annual statutory 4 billion. She also claimed that due to the lack of limits in the National Health Fund, children's therapies were interrupted. By comparison, she stated that in 2022 and 2023 her camp allocated nearly 5 billion zlotys for school psychological care and doubled the number of specialists to nearly 43 thousand. She believed that the government was using the topic of cybersecurity to hide its own incompetence. #psychiatria #bezpieczeństwo #edukacja (translated)
