WATCH: Junior doctors in our region take part in first all-out NHS strike
It's the first all-out strike in the history of the health service.
Junior doctors have joined picket lines across Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire in the first all-out NHS strike in history.
Those who provide emergency cover in places like A&E units have also walked out.
Ellen McCourt is one junior doctor on the picket line outside the Hull Royal Infirmary - she has this plea for Jeremy Hunt:
Hull junior doctor, Matthew Tuck, has also been defending the latest industrial action and insists it isn't a strike too far:
Patients in the region are being told to only go to hospital if it's life-threatening or urgent.
They're walking out for nine hours today and tomorrow in the dispute over enforced new contracts, with emergency care withdrawn in England.
Consultants will be brought in to cover the gaps.
The health secretary says junior doctors will be responsible if patients die.
Jeremy Hunt insists they - and not the NHS - are responsible for putting patients' lives at risk.
