The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) has criticized the Medical Laboratory Scientists who are still on strike despite a court ruling.
The strike action which started from the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) on May 20, is in protest against the decision of the Management to post two doctors to work in the Unit of the Laboratory Scientists.
Subsequently, the National Labour Commission (NLC) secured an interlocutory injunction compelling them to call off the strike nationwide.
However, the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Ghana Association of Medical Laboratory Scientists, Dennis Adu Gyasi said the strike is still on because the injunction was only against the KATH chapter.
Kwaku Agyeman Manu, the Minister of Health is set to appear before the Health Committee of Parliament to deliberate on the strike by laboratory scientists in the country.
