Doctors Strike Over Pay and System Strain

from Cork News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Doctors and consultants in Northern Ireland are staging their first-ever joint 24-hour strike, demanding overdue pay after 18 years of erosion, while facing mounting workload and payment delays — all as emergency services stay open but routine care gets postponed. Frustration boils over as many consider leaving the profession, threatening patient care, while the Health Minister insists services will run normally and pledges to implement recommended pay rises — but cites lack of budget and executive constraints as roadblocks.
