Doctor Julie worked until she gave birth and that cost her a lot of money: “Rules are now being adjusted for everyone”

Julie De Vos, general practitioner in Gentbrugge, got to know the bureaucracy in the most unpleasant way. Due to the workload during the pandemic, she worked until her planned due date. Officially, you have to take leave the week before the due date, but because Julie didn’t, she lost her full maternity leave. After a whole riot on Twitter, that rule is now being changed.
