A senior presidential official met with reporters at the presidential office in Yongsan today (17th) and explained the background of the decision to increase the number of doctors by 4,000 in 2035, as he expected that there would be a shortage of more than 20,000 doctors.
He also explained that it is impossible to change the admission quota for next year as it is like changing the rules in the middle of a sports game, and from 2026, if you bring a well-founded plan, you can discuss it without being buried in the addition of 2,000 people.
In addition, he added that he is preparing separate emergency measures to respond to patients with diseases such as respiratory, cardio-cerebrovascular, and infectious diseases in response to winter, adding that he will announce them soon.
