NHS bosses worry as junior doctors in England stage a third walkout in their attempt to secure a 35% rise.
Health bosses are warning of major disruption and pressure on the NHS in England, as the hot weather combines with the latest junior-doctors' strike.It is the third strike in the pay dispute and is expected to lead to the cancellation of much routine care.
Alongside heat-stroke, hot weather also brings an increase in heart failure and kidney problems as well as high rates of sprains and fractures and respiratory problems. The four-day April walkout saw about 196,000 hospital appointments and treatments postponed. And the hospital waiting list, growing since the start of the pandemic, has now hit a record 7.4 million people.
"Emergency, urgent and critical care will be prioritised this week but some patients will unfortunately have had their appointments postponed - if you haven't been contacted to reschedule, please do continue to attend your planned appointment. What has happened to pay was a major factor in the staffing shortages, the 26-year-old said, and "grossly unfair"."There is very often situations where doctors call in sick for a nightshift and there's no cover available.
