Doctors who have committed violent crimes continue to protest against the amendment to the medical law that required them to revoke their licenses. If the revised bill passes through the National Assembly as it is, it does not withdraw its position that it will strike a general strike. I was conscious of criticism, but I was spared the words that I would go on a strike or not help with vaccinations, but there was a last word toward the ruling party.
This is Yoon Jae-young.

The medical association issued a statement that it would go on a general strike when the amendment to the medical law was passed by the National Assembly Legislative Judicial Committee three days ago.
However, in today’s (23rd) currency, there was no confirmation.
[김대하/대한의사협회 대변인 : 언급은 됐지만 총파업이라든지 집단 단체행동에 대해 아직 결정된 바는 없습니다. (의결을) 미리 가정해서 말씀드릴 건 아닌 거 같아요. 법률전문가 자문도 받았고 그런 의견들을 (국회에) 전달하는 데 집중하고 있습니다.]
In today’s press release, Chairman of the Medical Association Choi, Choi, asked the government to persuade the National Assembly, saying, “We need cooperation in vaccination, but we are concerned about collapse.”
I’m conscious of the rising criticism of public strikes or saying that they would refuse to cooperate with vaccinations.
A different story is coming out inside the KMA.
Tae-wook Yoo, chairman of the Korean Family Medicine Department, insisted, “You must ask the will of all members to decide whether to strike.”
“I urge the ruling party to find a point of contact in consultation with the medical community,” he made a statement.
He is one of the candidates for the president-elect election in the middle of next month.
There was also a radical last word.
Lim Hyun-taek, chairman of the Pediatrics and Youth Clinic, wrote a rough expression on his SNS last night to a spokesman for the Democratic Party along with Kang Sun-woo.
He is also one of the candidates for the presidential election.
He also said, “Every time I brief, I only talk about falling and falling.”
Spokesman Kang said, “People have the right to be treated by doctors, not murderers or sex offenders.”
