The British Medical Association confirmed that NHS workers will walk out over four days later this month, and a further three days at the start of next month
How will the NHS be affected?
The NHS has warned it expects the action to cause “major disruption to care”, with most routine appointments likely to be cancelled and emergency care prioritised. “The spirit of taking the Christmas Day cover form of industrial action is to ensure the lowest safe level of staffing that is found at any point in the year. The level of staffing mirrors what could be expected on Christmas Day – both in terms of the number of junior doctors, and the places and departments they will be working in. This generally involves on-call teams clerking and covering wards, as well as staff in A&E attending as usual.
