Doctors have voted to remain on
strike, Joy News can confirm.
It follows an emergency meeting held
at the Ghana Medical Association offices in Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
They have however agreed not to
resign en masse as threatened by their leadership two weeks ago over an
absence of improved conditions of service..
213 doctors voted for the status
quo, while 148 voted to resume duty. That is by a margin of 65 votes, the
doctors voted to continue the strike that is set to enter its third week.
The repurcusions of this decision
will be very grim for the health sector already reeling under the strike action
by more than 2,000 members.
