The Doctors Syndicate will send a delegation to the cabinet on 19 September to call for increasing the infections allowance, the syndicate said in a statement. The State Council Administrative Court ratified a decision in June that would increase the infections allowance for doctors from EGP 19 to EGP 1,000. The syndicate, however, launched an internal survey among its members in an attempt to undertake a unified move towards the delay in increasing the allowance. Mona Mina, the syndicate’s secretary general, said that sending a delegation to cabinet received the highest number of votes. The syndicate delegation’s attempt to visit the cabinet was not a scheduled meeting between both sides.
