Glasgow’s NHS is on the “brink of collapse” according to councillors, after residents were advised not to visit A&E unless it was vital.
It comes as the latest government figures show just over 60% of patients were seen in under four hours.
The issue was brought to the attention of full council on Thursday by Labour councillor Eunis Jassemi who raised concerns about the recent advice issued to residents encouraging them to avoid visiting A&E during the winter.
