Nearly 15,000 nurses in NYC are officially on strike after walking off the job due to failed contract talks on Monday morning. It marks the largest nurses’ strike in NYC history.
Hospitals affected by the strike include Mount Sinai locations, Montefiore and NewYork-Presbyterian. Nurses from Mount Sinai began picketing outside their hospitals at 6 a.m. on Jan. 12, followed immediately by nurses from the other medical centers at 7 a.m. the same day.
