What the petition asks
Pharmacists are first line staff, GPs have shut doors but pharmacies are open to the public. If pharmacy staff are not protected during Covid 19 they will soon start falling ill and pharmacies will have to shut due to the lack of safe staffing numbers.
The government has forgotten a key healthcare group the pharmacists throughout of covid 19 planning. Dont let the pharmacists get forgotten in receiving appropriate protective gear.
