Vice Minister of Health and Welfare Park Min-soo "feels heavy responsibility"...No resignation.

Park Min-soo, the second vice minister of health and welfare, said he felt a heavy responsibility for the medical crisis that took place after his major's collective resignation, but he declined to express his intention.

Vice Minister Park responded to Democratic Party lawmaker Seo Young-seok's criticism that the vice minister's resignation from responsibility for the medical crisis was the starting point at the parliamentary audit of the National Assembly's Health and Welfare Committee today.

He then said he felt responsible for the situation, but that civil servants should do their best in their duties as long as they take on their duties.

Following yesterday, the Ministry of Health and Welfare emphasized that despite the prolonged medical crisis, there is no major confusion in the medical field.

Minister Cho Kyu-hong noted that overall medical services have decreased as the number of medical personnel has decreased due to the departure of majors, but that it is focused on severely ill patients and there is not as much confusion as feared.
