Hundreds of Accident and Emergency centres and GP clinics across the country have been affected by strike action by more than 3,000 primary care nurses today.

Lunch-time rallies took place in Wellington and Christchurch, and nurses were joined by striking administration staff, who are also calling on the government to step in after mediation with employers failed.
