Junior Doctors Strike Editorial Image

BATH, UK - FEBRUARY 10, 2015: Junior doctors strike at a picket line outside the Royal United Hospital. Junior NHS doctors across the country have taken part in a 24 hour walk-out in opposition to a government plan to introduce new contracts, which critics argue will effectively increase workload and decrease pay. The doctor's industrial action has led to the cancellation of 3,000 non-emergency operations at NHS hospitals across the UK.
