Can someone explain to me the logic behind a nationwide nurse strike protesting people getting shot? I feel like I must be missing something, because normally a strike is meant as leverage against the organization most impacted by the strike. In the case of nurse strikes, the companies that own the hospitals are the target, with the demands being better pay or better hours or better equipment or whoever.
But nurses striking because people are getting shot by the government doesn't feel like there's any leverage at all.
What am I missing?

@nyquildotorg isn't it a General Strike, not just nurses?
But, even if it were just nurses, "stop killing us" is a reasonable demand.
