Amid the rapid spread of Corona 19 in the metropolitan area, the conversation was difficult, but the difference was clear from the beginning.

[Night neunghu / Health and Welfare Minister: I do not think it different from the concerns of the target with the government aimed at areas to improve health disparities solved with education and training environments, such as medical dramatically.]

[Up to the house / The Doctors Association: unilateral policies promoting more I don't think it's ideal. I think it must be withdrawn.] The

meeting lasted for about two hours, but the Ministry of Health and Welfare did not withdraw from the policy that it was impossible to withdraw the number of 4,000 medical students, etc., in order to reduce the regional medical gap. After the establishment was withdrawn and the pilot project for reimbursement of herbal medicines was abolished, we kept the existing position to form a health care development council to discuss.

Both sides did not make concessions, so they only reaffirmed the disagreement, but it is known that little discussion about the strike was made.

The medical community has announced that the strike of the major council starting tomorrow and the general strike at the medical association level scheduled for three days starting on the 26th are as scheduled.

The majors also decided to resign on the 30th if this situation was not resolved.

Amid the spread of coronavirus that cannot be seen ahead of time, damage to the people became inevitable.
