60,000 of the workers are at Kaiser facilities in California and will now be striking through through 6 a.m. Saturday. Here's how it could impact hospitals.The biggest healthcare strike in U.S. history is now happening as 75,000 Kaiser Permanente workers are hitting the picket lines Wednesday morning.

She says she now gets emotional seeing patients. "Patients will feel an immediate impact, especially if they need lab work, diagnostic imaging, pharmacy and vision care and so on because most of the employees who are the bulk of the workers in those facilities would be on strike," August said.
