As a medical Doctors you have pledged to save lives and abide by the ethics and code of conduct of the medical profession. You have been taught to "choose to do what will be beneficial to more people, and do more good than harm", but this is not what we see Doctors do in the real life situations in Nigeria. They 'chicken out' at the slightest provocation. They are always talking about better welfare all the time. But what of the welfare and well-being of their Patients? I thought that 'customers are always right' or does it not apply to Patients as customers? There are Doctors who volunteer to serve at war fronts, disaster areas, epidemic zones and most times under very dangerous and hostile situations, but they don't give up, they don't go on strike, but we only see such Doctors on CNN, Euro News, Aljazeera and such foreign TV News Stations. This doctors strike has brought untold hardship on people, many sick people have died because they can not afford alternative private health care. It has also encouraged the practices of fake health care providers all over the country, who usually operate under unhygienic environments.
SHOULD MEDICAL DOCTORS GO ON STRIKE?
Please viewers, give your comments because this is a very serious issue.
I dnt think medical doctors should go on strike. Theirs is a selfless duty. So, d utmost thing that should be on their minds should be to save life and that cannot be achieved if they are on strike.
