Trying to find assistance for my daughters former teacher with getting oxygen. She was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis last February and has been on oxygen therapy since, she's literally about to be out this week. If you or anyone you know can help, PLEASE dm me.

This is an interesting take to say the least. The cost of a medical degree? The cost if it's specialization? How long they stay to get qualified? The hours that the junior doctors work? – at Jamaica

If you think doctors shouldn't be paid the overtime they are owed and were told they would be receiving because "they already earn enough" and "what are they doing with that money" it sounds like you are just jealous and not actually interested in the issue at hand

You guys cannot use the fact that other people are paid poorly as the reason that doctors should also be paid poorly.

The time unno a argue with the doctors, you mobilize your professional unions to advocate for better salaries for your respective groups.
This is just absurd.

My take on the doctors situation is that nobody should be working 8+ hours a day without being properly compensated. None of you lot in your lil 9-5 jobs are sitting by your desk for 24 hours straight. Why should doctors? Like be so fucking serious now.

Nobody talks how it feels seeing everyone having fun w their lives while you're stuck in this strange state of tiredness, sadness, and emptiness that just won't go away.

I have another view: no amount of money can compensate for sheer exhaustion.
Doctors and nurses need shorter, safer shifts. Fatigue affects judgement, and these professionals literally have people’s lives in their hands.
I’ve said this before: rest in healthcare is a personal and patient-safety issue.

Senior Medical Officer at the Mandeville Regional Hospital Dr Everton McIntosh is appealing to medical doctors to assist in manning the facility where junior doctors are currently on strike.
“I just want to make an appeal, so if there are any doctors out there who are willing to do some sessions at the hospital, we are inviting persons… ,” he told journalists Friday morning.
