More than 5000 doctors leave their posts in historic unprotected strike
The strike is the first industrial action in NSW in almost 30 years.
More than 5000 doctors from 32 public hospitals have defied legal orders and begun a three-day strike — NSW doctors’ first industrial action since 1998.
The strike is cutting staffing to public holiday levels from Tuesday morning until 10pm on Thursday as part of a campaign for a 30% pay rise and a guarantee of 10-hour breaks between shifts.
