It seems there needs to be more doctors to help reduce the insane workload. Must be lots burn out suffered ? by Drs?

Not enough doctors in the pipeline. The government gave doctor associations control over the pipeline and basically even encouraged reduction, because it increases wages. They don't want to many doctors. Lawyers do the same potentially even better.

I'm sure burnouts happen but the fundamental problem is the pipeline.
