Good morning

I would like to thank and greet all those who are watching me right now through the Youtube channel of our chancellery. We have created this space to offer information about recent events in which our country decided to discontinue its participation in Brazil’s More Doctors Program. Upon this decision, our health professionals have started to return to our country.

I advise you that we will be broadcasting live, in Spanish, and once this transmission concludes, we will be airing it in Portuguese and English.
