Tóth Bertalan
Tóth Bertalan is a Hungarian politician and member of the National Assembly, representing the Hungarian Socialist Party (MSZP). He has been vocal about health policies and has criticized the recent government decision to exclude patients from surgery eligibility based on their body mass index (BMI). Tóth argues that this approach is not only discriminatory but also undermines the medical profession's understanding of health, as BMI does not accurately reflect an individual's health status. He has called for more humane and effective solutions to address long waiting lists for surgeries in Hungary.
