Health system so bad people are dying: Rural doctors

29/11/2008 8:15:00 AM.  | Olivia Suzanski
Rural doctor groups have say the hospital network in the country is so bad people are dying prematurely.

The Rural Doctors Association says more than 100 doctors will gather in Sydney on Saturday, to protest against country health dollars being sent to the city.

New South Wales President Dr Les Woollard says they're drawing a line in the sand - literally on Bondi Beach.

“We’re not going to have a football field worth of people, we’re just going to have a large number of concerned rural doctors and medical students on the beach and I’m hoping for 100 at least.”

This has been known for some time, and it is not rural, but state wide. I recall some nurses who raised some criticism were apparently smeared by former Premier Morris Iemma. The ALP don't seem to address issues but smear whistle blowers.
