Minister Wille Rydman defended the price increases in public healthcare. “Time and again, the government's prestige choice is to cut off the poorest and sickest Finns,” Greens chairwoman Sofia Virta said at Yle's A studio on Monday evening. Minister for Social Affairs and Health Wille Rydman (ps) countered that the increases will be more targeted at those who can afford to pay.
