Hundreds of ambulance staff already undergoing procedures for taking too many days off sick could face disciplinary action if they catch swine flu and, ultimately, be fired.
The LAS flu policy states staff who are ill with swine flu are advised to stay at home and not get back to work until they have been free of fever for 24 hours.
