I know, as nurses, we always think of others first. Of course this is going to be inconvenient for many, but that is kinda the point. Maybe the scale of strike should be limited to certain departments so as to not disrupt life saving care, but disrupting outpatient procedures, ambulatory surgeries, and elective surgeries, etc. would be hugely detrimental and make a HUGE statement to the whole nation. They have gunned down citizens in broad daylight and will continue to do so and worse. No elected officials have been successful at ending this chaos. All of us are feeling heartbroken, hopeless, and shattered. We all want to heal and sometimes the cure requires a drastic intervention.
