Petition · past parliament

Keep the infected patients of coronavirus in the hospital.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Please keep the infected people of coronavirus in the hospital. Don't send the patients with mild symptoms back home.
Because the situation here in the UK is quite similar to the early stage of Wuhan. Patients with mild symptom were sent back home without appropriate management, which led to the infection of the whole family and the breakout in the city.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Decisions on isolation and treatment of individuals are clinical and not political decisions.
