What the petition asks
Police officers, paramedics and fire service staff are all required to enter properties/hospitals as part of routine matters or to preserve life and prevent crime. Theses properties are home to very vulnerable 'at-risk' individuals. People can be carriers of COVID-19 with no symptoms.
By testing all emergency service staff you reduce the risk of spreading the virus.
