What the petition asks

Chicken pox is considered a common childhood illness, Sadly it can cause unnecessary pain and suffering to many. And some have severe complications like my 2 year old son who has to be admitted to hospital after getting a severe infection in his chicken pox.
Please sign this petition to help give parents and children the choice to have this vaccination on the NHS. My son is a healthy 2 year old and should not have had any complications. No other child should have to go through this. Make the change today for the health and future of our children.
