Paraguay's Ministry of Labour has not yet received notification from the National Medical Union, Sinamed, about a possible new doctors' strike.

The union held an assembly in Asunciรณn on September 3 to assess whether to call another strike after last week's walkout. The government offered public-sector doctors a salary adjustment through a "merit-based system", but the proposal fell short of their expectations.
