Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis explained today why he “promoted” the company “La Vie en Rose” and his reference to Dimitra Katsafadou, just days after revealing he has had botox and hair transplant procedures. “I have been moved by this family,” the minister said characteristically, revealing Ms. Katsafadou’s charitable activities.
Georgiadis on Katsafadou: I’ll promote her 100 times
Specifically, responding to his critics, Mr. Georgiadis told Action 24: “I received criticism for promoting a cosmetics company, La Vie en Rose owned by Mrs. Katsafadou. But why did I do it? Beyond the fact that they are very good creams and I recommend them, I have also been moved by this family for the following reason: They came to my office one day and told me: We have done exceptionally well and we want to make donations to the National Health System.” The Health Minister publicly thanked the company, emphasizing: “Let others come and make such donations and I’ll promote them too. I’ll promote her 100 times, and in this country we must recognize what is good,” he stated on Action 24. Regarding botox, Adonis Georgiadis stressed that he considers it hypocritical “to hide what we do,” noting that plastic surgeons’ clinics are full. “Is Adonis the only one who goes?” he commented characteristically.
La Vie En Rose: Donations worth 1.5 million euros
It should be noted that the company La Vie En Rose, owned by Dimitra Katsafadou, has made significant donations to the National Health System, strengthening equipment and infrastructure at hospitals serving cancer patients. Specifically, the total value of the company’s donations by Ms. Katsafadou to date amounts to approximately 1.5 million euros and includes the procurement of a CT scanner, axial treatment system, robotic injection machine, as well as two specialized radiation protection beds. Additionally, the company has funded the creation of new treatment rooms to improve patient care. La Vie En Rose is now proceeding with a new, particularly ambitious project: the creation of a New Cancer Patient Unit at Laiko Hospital, totaling 5 million euros. The project, currently in the preparation stage, is expected to cover critical hospital needs and substantially contribute to the care and treatment of cancer patients.
