Why junior doctors are striking
The British Medical Association say:
A crippling cost-of-living crisis, burnout and well below inflation pay rises are driving hard working doctors out of their profession, at a time when we need them more than ever.
More information, including a guide for patients during this strike action is available the the BMA website.
