Streeting 'angry on behalf of patients' over doctors' strike

Health Secretary Wes Streeting has condemned the BMA’s five-day strike as “reckless and unnecessary,” saying he and the prime minister are “angry on behalf of patients.” He praised NHS staff, including many resident doctors defying the strike, for cancelling leave to keep services going.

BMA: Nobody wants to go on strike

Co-Chair of BMA Dr Melissa Ryan has said resident doctors need the Health Secretary and the government to ''negotiate properly and give an offer''. It comes as thousands of resident doctors are set to walk out from 7am on Friday for five days. The public have been urged to keep coming forward for NHS care during the walkout. GP surgeries will open as usual and urgent care and A&E will continue to be available, alongside 111, NHS England said. Report by Gluszczykm.

The jab offers a vital “protective bubble” during the winter months, when RSV infections typically spike. Health officials say the new measure could prevent thousands of hospitalisations and reduce strain on paediatric services. Report by Etemadil.
