Medical health approaches for trans folks are actually their own separate thing because they have to take into account effects of hormone therapy. Including this could raise awareness and preparedness at medical facilities, so it's not a bad idea at all. Either the individual on the hunger strike is on HRT and has had shit service at medical facilities where staff probably had no clue, or they're just highly sympathetic.

edit: (I'm using "trans" here as an umbrella term including non-binary individuals, in case anyone wasn't sure.)
