GMOA doctors strike in five districts

The Government Medical Officers’ Association (GMOA) has launched a 24-hour strike from 8.00 a.m. this morning (20) at all hospitals and medical institutions in 05 districts in the island.

 

The one-day strike has been launched protesting against the role of the Secretary to the Ministry of Health in granting post internship appointments.

 

He said it is due to the arbitrary actions of the Health Secretary that the patients would have to suffer and not because of the doctors’ strike.
