In Britain, tens of thousands of junior doctors are on day two of a four-day strike to demand livable wages. It’s the latest in a wave of strikes over pay and working conditions at the government-run National Health Service and follows a similar action last month. This is OB-GYN Marsha Green speaking from the picket line Tuesday.

Dr. Marsha Green: “I’ve got friends who’ve left medicine because it’s broken them. I had to have counseling for PTSD symptoms after the COVID pandemic, because it was just — it was a horror. And we’re still expected to carry on as though nothing has happened, and deteriorating conditions, and it’s just — it’s getting to the point where we’re all at breaking point, not just financially, but mentally and physically.”
