Thousands of patients face being turned away from public hospitals tomorrow if a wildcat strike by South Africa’s 18-thousand disgruntled state doctors goes ahead.
The South African Medical Association says it expects a “total shutdown” in KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape, followed by the rest of the country on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Sama wants a minimum 50-percent salary increase for its seven-thousand-odd members. Government has offered five-percent, but a revised deal will be presented at a bargaining council meeting on Wednesday.
