Opinion: Are resident doctors' strikes in the UK unjustified?

Resident doctors have voted to go on strike for five days this month. This will cause as many as 200,000 appointments to be cancelled, meaning cancer diagnoses delayed, longer waiting lists and agony prolonged for thousands of patients. Be in no doubt that lives will be lost as a direct or indirect result of this industrial action from the British Medical Association. However, that is the logic of strikes. They are only as effective as the harm they cause. In this case, it is the sick and the dying who are being held to ransom, writes City AM's Opinion and Features Editor Alys Denby ✍️ Click the link in our bio to read more about the story 🔗 #health #doctor #strike #protest #residentdoctors #juniordoctors #juniordoctorprotest #healthcare #politics #politicalnews #economy #economics #business #businessnews #finance #financialnews #personalfinance #worktrends #news #uk #ukeconomy #ukpolitics #uknews #opinion
