South Korea’s government has announced it’s moving to suspend the licenses of thousands of doctors who’ve been on strike for at least two weeks. About 7,000 doctors have defied orders by South Korean officials to return to work by the end of February. Doctors have been protesting the government’s plan to increase medical school admissions by around 65%. They’re demanding higher wages and a more manageable workload.
