Would you want a surgeon to operate on your child after a 52 hour shift? No? Then support their strike. @Telegraphhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/nhs/12097206/We-are-driving-our-junior-doctors-to-sleepless-caffeinated-destruction.html …
@timalmond what data do I need to quote a specific doctor?

@JuliaHB1 None. But you have decided that they're being wronged based on it, rather than verifying it. -
@timalmond@JuliaHB1 If you know any junior doctors you would know they are regularly made to work ludicrous shifts i.e. 13-15 hours a day -
@TheRickSanchez@JuliaHB1 I'm not disputing 13-15 hours a day. -
@timalmond@JuliaHB1 I've seen junior doctors rotas where they have been made to work 13-15 hours for 7 days, a ~52 shift isn't impossible. -
@TheRickSanchez@JuliaHB1 so, you've seen 52 hour (with 4 hour sleep) shifts? -

@sequoiathree@TheRickSanchez@JuliaHB1 I once did 30 hours work in a row (non-medical) and you just shutdown. -
