Doctors have warned that the Finnish government's plans to ban undocumented people from accessing non-emergency healthcare could be life-threatening, contradicting previous laws supporting full access.
Aino Tuomi-Nikula criticized the proposal as a false narrative about healthcare costs, arguing it is cheaper to provide preventive care than to wait for emergencies.
Louise Bonneau emphasized that healthcare is a basic human right, arguing that the proposed law would exacerbate suffering and violate principles of equality and justice.
The Finnish medical association stated that, despite some exemptions, the proposed restrictions would significantly worsen the health outcomes for vulnerable populations.
