up to 60,000 unjabbed staff facing sack on THURSDAY - as sector warns homes will CLOSE because there were already 100k vacancies before Covid struck
Care bosses have today issued a desperate appeal for No10 to delay or even ditch its 'timebomb' no jab, no job policy over fears 60,000 workers will be sacked within days.
From Thursday all care home workers must have received two doses of a Covid vaccine or face losing their jobs.
Unions have warned a tenth of the sector's entire workforce will be forced out of employment, which could see already under-staffed homes have to close. There were already more than 100,000 vacancies across the social care sector in England before ministers confirmed the controversial policy.
