As per reports, following are the updates on the doctors’ protest in South Korea as on Saturday (08 June):

• The Korean Medical Association (KMA), the largest doctors’ organisation with over 129,000 members, may stage a walkout on 20 June, pending the results of a recent vote.
• More than 70,000, or 54.8 percent, of KMA members took part in the vote held over four days since Tuesday (04 June).
• The KMA has yet to announce the outcome of the vote, stating it will be revealed at a meeting to be held on Sunday (09 June). However, the association noted that Sunday’s meeting will mark “the largest collective action in history,” where professors, paid doctors, and practitioners will agree to act with the same purpose.
• This meeting also follows the decision by doctors at four major hospitals affiliated with Seoul National University to stage a walkout starting 17 June.
