Young doctors in the UK are preparing to strike as part of the wage dispute with the government on July 25th.
Professor Robert Winston, a flow of labor that has become the name of households through documentaries about child development, warned the risks of “extremely dangerous” industrial action that damages the people’s confidence in the profession.
