By A Correspondent- The striking doctors have said the government is negotiating in bad faith and clearly doesn’t care about the healthcare system of the country.

Dr Tapiwa Mungofa said:

“Disciplinary hearings are still ongoing and they are being conducted by the Health Services Board.

In doing so we maintain that we have not committed any crime by being broke by asking for a liveable wage.

As it is now we remain incapacitated and we expect that all doctors will be fired. We had already been fired.. even at the beginning of the year, we had already been fired because our living wages are pathetic.

The already few doctors have been fired and this affects mostly the patients. We eagerly wait to see how this move which defies all common sense will serve as a solution to the already strained healthcare system. We are going nowhere…

The way forward is to be suggested by the health services board. It depends with them, us as doctors we are just ordinary citizens and we are even patients like you.

Nothing has been done to improve the welfare of doctors and hospitals working environments therefore doctors nationwide remain incapacitated

The doctors have been on strike for 64 days and yesterday the govt decided to fire 77 striking doctors as a disciplinary measure.
