Nursing and midwifery leaders say plan to start dismissing unvaccinated staff next month is ‘self-sabotage’
Nursing and midwifery leaders have urged Sajid Javid to delay the introduction of compulsory Covid jabs for NHS staff and said the controversial policy amounts to “self-sabotage”.
The plea from the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) and Royal College of Midwives (RCM) comes as NHS trusts in England prepare to start sending out dismissal letters from 3 February to any member of staff who has not had their first dose of a vaccine by then.
