(ANSA) - Rome, December 11 - A doctors' strike will hit the
national health service hard Tuesday, unions said Monday.
Some 40,000 surgical operations will be cancelled as well as
hundreds of thousands of specialist examinations and diagnostic
tests, while veterinary services will come to a halt, the ANAAO
Assomed union said.
"The health service is closing one day so as not to close
down forever," it said.
