Presidency's Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun said, "Having one of the world's largest and most qualified health armies is a source of pride for our country."
Director of Communications Altun supported the digital letter campaign organized by Lütfen Platformu (The Please Platform) with the slogan "Let's Write a Letter to Those Who Make History" for the healthcare professionals who have served with great sacrifice during the Covid-19 process on the occasion of March 14 Doctors' Day.
Altun, who started his letter as 'Dear healthcare professionals, very distinguished soldiers of our health army', congratulated March 14 Doctors' Day.
Pointing out that the efforts exerted by the healthcare professionals at all times and under all circumstances to heal humanity with knowledge and devotion were above all kinds of appreciation, Altun reiterated that the healthcare professionals accomplished many professional and humanitarian achievements with the services they have provided with sacrifice even under challenging circumstances such as war and disasters in Türkiye and throughout the world from past to present.
Indicating that healthcare professionals were one of the main actors during Türkiye's efficient fight against the coronavirus, which affected the whole world and was almost an invisible enemy, Altun noted the following:
"We, as the whole nation, are grateful to you for your heartfelt work, day and night, giving up your own lives and your families in order to save another life during this period. We continue our fight against the coronavirus with a success that makes a difference compared to many countries, through your knowledge, experience and sacrifice, as well as the opportunities provided by our investments made in our health system under the leadership of our President. Having one of the world's largest and most qualified health armies is a source of pride for our country. On this occasion, I once again wish Allah's mercy on our healthcare professionals who lost their lives while fighting against the coronavirus."
Greeting with affection and respect all members of the health sector, who used the opportunities provided by the science and the Republic of Türkiye to serve humanity and citizens, Altun added: "So glad to have you, I wish you the best of health."
