Patient care has been affected at the Government Medical College Hospital, Kozhikode, with the ongoing indefinite strike by junior resident doctors seeking fast-tracking of NEET-PG allotment entering the 11th day on Saturday.
Postgraduate medical students have been boycotting non-emergency duties such outpatient services, surgeries, and ward duty since the first week of December. From Friday, they kept off from emergency duties such as casualty, labour ward, and intensive care units as well.
According to sources, the strike has led to a drastic fall in the number of patients visiting the hospital. The footfall at the OP department, which used to see around 2,500 patients a day earlier, has reportedly come down to around 1,400.
