A meeting between the government and the Dominican Medical Association (CMD) has failed to produce concrete results. CMD president Waldo Ariel Suero described the meeting as 'a complete failure'. The meeting lasted for an hour and a half after which Suero said the CMD would continue fighting for what they believe is fair. Suero added that doctors wouldn't stop until they received fair salaries. Suero said the government seems unwilling to comprise. Doctors have been fighting for a wage increase of RD$25,000 per month.
