Sierra Leone in serious trouble as all health workers and personnel join doctors’ strike tomorrow

Sierra Leone is in serious trouble. Doctors went on strike for better conditions of service after giving the SLPP Government a 21-day ultimatum which expired during the week, and now The Coalition of Healthcare Workers  (which is composed of  associations for doctors, nurses, pharmacists and community health officers) , having reviewed the government’s proposal and rendered it unsatisfactory, will join the strike tomorrow. 

 

The action, if carried out, will bring all health care delivery services in the country , to a complete standstill.

 

 

Patients,  like this seriously sick baby, will not receive any attention whatsoever , beginning from tomorrow if health workers concerns are not addressed.
