Pneumococcal vaccine to inform those entitled of the benefits
Rejected
16 signatures
What the petition asks
To make it compulsory to inform every one aged over 65 and under 65 s that have underlying health issues of their free entitlement. My young brother paid £80 for it last week as he is 64.
many people entitled to the pneumonia jag are not informed of their right to this important life saver and how it can prevent Sepsis and Meningitis. Millions are not aware of its benefits . I want the U K public to all be informed of what benefits immunisation can protect you from. Also I make no claims about giving any form of protection to Corona virus but I have been assured elderly and people with weak immune systems will have a better chance of survival than those who have not been vaccinated or worse still not informed
