Junior doctors strike: why are they taking action and how will it affect you?

Medics are withdrawing all but emergency action for two 24-hour periods, from April 6 to 8.

And there will also be a full withdrawal of labour planned between the hours of 8am and 5pm on 26 and 27 April, which will be the first time in the NHS's history that they will refuse to provide emergency cover. Consultants and other medical staff will still be working during the strike.
