3 | Feelings of revulsion and anger were caused by news published in Eleftherotypia (Freedom of Press) [el] newspaper on December 5, 2011, which revealed some public hospitals in Greece have refused treatment to women in labour, because they did not have the money to pay hospital fees of 950 euro. | Fahatsapana rikoriko sy fahatezerana no naterak'ilay vaovao navoaka tao amin'ny Eleftherotypia (Fahafahan'ny Filazam-baovao) [el] gazety nivoaka ny 5 Desambra 2011, izay namoaka fa ny hopitalim-panjakana sasany ao Gresy dia nandà tsy hikarakara ireo vehivavy izay efa nihetsi-jaza, noho izy ireo tsy manam-bola handoavana ny saran'ny hopitaly izay 950 euro. |
4 | The incidents took place in November 2011, at public hospitals in Athens, Thessaloniki, Rhodes and Rethymnon. | Izany zavatra izany dia nitranga ny Novambra 2011, tao amin'ny hopitalim-panjakana tao Athènes, Thessalonique, Rhodes ary Rethymnon. |
5 | In these cases the cost of “integrated unified hospital treatment” according to Ministry of Health price list, came in at 950 euro for natural childbirth and 1,500 euro for birth by Caesarean section. | Amin'izany , ny saran'ny “Fikarakarana mitambatra eny amin'ny hopitaly ” araka ny lisitry ny teti-bidy avy amin'ny Ministeran'ny Fahasalamana , dia 950 euro ho an'ny fiterahana tsotra ary 1.500 euro hoan'ny fiterahana mila fandidiana. |
6 | Pregnant women pay the money in advance and afterwards the costs are offset with the labour allowance. | Mandoa vola mialoha ireo vehivavy bevohoka ary avy eo ny lany dia soloin'ny sampan-draharahan'ny asa. |
7 | Birth. | Fiterahana. |

9 | After several days delay, the Ministry of Health and Social Solidarity intervened with a circular, stating that [el] no advance payment of this amount will be required in future, leaving however the issue of price difference between the official price list and the provided labour allowance still open to question. | Taorian'ny fahatarana andro maro, ny Ministeran'ny Fahasalamana sy ny Firaisankina Sosialy dia nanelanelana tamin'ny fanambaràna, izay nilaza fa [el] tsy ilaina ny mandoa io vola io mialoha amin'ny ho avy, fa na izany aza dia mbola mipetraka foana kosa ny olan'ny elanelam-bidy eo amin'ny lisitra ofisialin'ny sanda sy ny famerenam-bola ataon'ny sampan-draharahan'ny asa. |
10 | Two women's rights organizations, the ‘Women's Initiative Against Debt and Austerity Measures' and the ‘Independent Women's Movement', have started to raise awareness of these incidents: | Fikambanana roa miaro ny zon'ny vehivavy, “Ny Fandraisan'andraikitr ny Vevhivavy hiadiana amin'ny Trosa sy ny Fepetran'ny Fitsitsiana” sy “Ny Hetsia Tsy Miankin'ny Vehivavy”, no nanomboka nanaitra ny saina momba ireo raharaha ireo : |
11 | Giving birth is not a privilege of the rich! | Tsy tombon-dahiny ho an'ny mpanankarena irery ny fiterahana ! |
12 | We demand free childbirth, we demand that the bailout funds go directly to health sector… | Mangataka fiterahana maimaimpoana izahay, mangataka izahay mba halefa mivantana any amin'ny sehatry ny fahasalamana ny vola fanampiana … |

32 | Among all the attacks I have faced by the state (heavy taxation, electricity, additional taxes), I have to say I am most furious about the treatment my pregnant wife faces. | Raha tamin'ireo herisetra rehetra nataon'ny fanjakana tamiko (hetra midangana, jiro, haba fanampiny), dia sahy milaza aho fa ny tena mahasosotra ahy indrindra dia ny fomba fikarakaràna natrehan'ny vadiko bevohoka. |
33 | My insurance no longer covers anything (Fund for Independent Professionals and Craftsmen) and the hospital is very expensive and its service is outrageous. | Tsy mahasarona na inona na inona intsony ny antoka ananako (Famatsiam-bola Ho An'ireo Mpiasa Tsy Miankina sy ny Mpanao asa tànana) ary lafo be ny hopitaly sady ratsy ny tolotr'izy ireo. |
34 | Every country supports maternity except for Greece. | Ny firenena rehetra dia miantoka ny fiterahana afa tsy i Gresy irery ihany. |
35 | If this situation continues, I will take my whole family and we will go abroad as immigrants. | Raha mbola mitohy izao zavatra izao, dia ho entiko ny fianakaviako rehetra ka hifindra monina any ivelany izahay. |

38 | Of course not, blame the cruel administration… | Mazava ho azy fa tsia, ny fitantanana tsy rariny no omeo tsiny… |

40 | @katerinas_diary: @jorjito73 They interfere to the future of the race, that is…If unemployed women who want to give birth are not admitted in public hospitals!!! | @katerinas_diary : @jorjito73 Misalovana amin'ny ho avin'ny sokajin'olona izy ireo, izany no izy…Raha vehivavy tsy an'asa mikasa ny hiteraka no tsy tafiditra amin'ny hopitalim-panjakana!!! |
41 | @jorjito73: @katerinas_diary It's the beginning of forming the electorate during the following years, once and for all…Shame and abjection. | @jorjito73 : @katerinas_diary Fanombohan'ny fananganana andianà mpifidy mandritry ireo taona manaraka ho avy izany, indray mandeha tsy miverina…fahafaham-baraka sy fahambanian-tsaina tanteraka. |
42 | Births in Greece appear to have decreased by 15% during the last year [el], as the harsh economic situation is forcing many couples to delay having their first or second child. | Ny fiterahana ao Gresy dia toa nihena 15% nandritra iny taona lasa iny[el], satria ny fahasarotan'ny raharaha ara-toekarena dia manery ireo mpivady hanemotra ny fanànany ny zanany voalohany na faharoa. Ity lahatsoratra ity dia ampahany manokana amin'ny lahatsoratray mikasika ny Krizy ao Eoropa. |
