The president of the Dominican Medical Association, Dr. Waldo Suero reported that nearly all the 14,000 doctors who work in the country's public hospitals and Social Security hospitals would walk out if the salary demands and the other five issues were not settled. Dr. Suero told reporters from Diario Libre that he was waiting for a call from the Minister of Health, Dr. Bautista Rojas Gomez to meet and discuss all the pending issues. Dr. Suero said that he and his team had identified the budget areas that could provide for a substantial pay increase for the doctors, and that he was waiting to hear whether the minister had anything substantial to report in response to the doctors' proposals. Suero said that he hoped that the two-day strike would not be necessary.
