During CEOM Plenary Meeting in Lisbon (Portugal) on 29 November 2019, CEOM participants have unanimously adopted March 12th as European Day to Fight Violence against Doctors and Health Professionals. This will be a yearly occasion for all national medical Orders and Associations across Europe to raise awareness and say stop.
