> We are the world champions of strikes and yet, somehow, doctors rarely go on strike. I do not know why.
When talking about public healthcare, strikes mean little. State won't care unless the strike is massive enough to attract media attention. Hospitals can't close down, a "safe" minimum of workers must care for patients so not a big problem for the state generally.
Except if that safe minimum is on strike as well. It takes a coordinated effort, sure, but we have role models such as the train conductors or other champions of strikes
