WARSAW (Reuters) – Poland’s Health Minister Lukasz Szumowski said on Tuesday he was resigning from his post.
The announcement came a day after Deputy Health Minister Janusz Cieszynski announced he was leaving the ministry.
The resignations come at a time of growing criticism of how Poland’s ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) has been dealing with the pandemic as the daily numbers of new infections remain high.
