LifeLong medical staff strike across the East Bay

Original: LifeLong doctors, nurses and therapists strike across the East Bay

Doctors, nurses and therapists employed by LifeLong Medical Care walked off the job across the East Bay, disrupting clinics serving low-income and uninsured patients in the Berkeley, Oakland and Richmond area. The stoppage is part of a wave of health care labor actions as medical workers press for better pay and staffing. It is not yet clear how long the strike will last or how services will be affected.

Why now: Health care workers are striking over pay and working conditions amid a broader wave of medical labor actions.
