Fears of a staffing crisis are growing as thousands of unjabbed doctors, nurses and healthcare workers across Merseyside 'face the sack' when the Government's NHS covid vaccine mandate comes in.
A source with knowledge of the situation at Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LUHFT), which runs the Royal Liverpool, Aintree and Broadgreen hospitals, told the ECHO that as things stand around 1,000 health care staff are set to lose their jobs within that trust alone.
The source said of that figure, around 200 were doctors, and added that it does not include agency or bank staff who are vital for covering gaps in the rota.
