In Spain, thousands of women took to the streets of Seville to protest against failures in the breast cancer screening system. The irregularities, which include delays in testing, modified reports, and lack of communication with patients, have sparked a wave of public outrage and the call for a large march by the Association of Women with Breast Cancer, AMAMA. According to the organization, numerous medical records have been altered, replacing terms such as "suspicious" or 'inconclusive' with "probably benign," which would have prevented many women from receiving the necessary medical follow-up. In this regard, the regional government of Andalusia recognized that at least 2,317 women in the region have been affected by errors in the follow-up of their mammograms.

00:46We came to protest about the problem that has arisen with the women of Amama, and well, with all women in general,
00:58because we are all affected by the problem of screening.
01:01And so we came to show our full support for this, and also because this is a healthcare issue,
01:07in that they are investing a lot in the private sector and the public system is being ruined.
01:12So we came to change that completely. That has to change.
01:18We have the right to fair healthcare, to information, and just as we have our rights and duties as citizens,
01:27we also have to have good healthcare, I believe.
01:31Because the truth is that it's not fair that we only pay and get nothing in return.
01:37This is not a game, it is our health.
01:39For us life.
