Conflicts between doctors and patients are again brought into the spotlight, with several cases of violence occurring in hospitals nationwide over the last 10 days. And the topic has been widely discussed on Sina Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter.
One netizen says patients should not be taking it out on doctors, no matter what their causes are. Another says in order to save lives, doctors and patients should be friends instead of enemies.
Some question the healthcare mechanism, with one netizen saying hospitals should put public interests before their own profits.
While another stresses that aside from building trust between doctors and patients, the enforcement of medical law is also important for settling conflicts.
