Hospital and private doctors have decided to extend their strike until Friday like their colleagues working for the IKA-ETAM social insurance fund. The decision was made on Thursday at the health ministry, which doctors have occupied since the start of the week.
The doctors are striking against reforms to public health care introduced by an omnibus bill passed by Parliament on Wednesday.
They have also decided to continue their occupation of the health ministry's lecture theatre until Friday, at which time they will hold a new general meeting to decide on further action.
