Provide all workers dealing with the public PPE to be protected from COVID-19

Closed 50 signatures

What the petition asks

What I want to achieve is to provide full WHO recommendations of PPE (including hand sanitiser)+training of PPE without worry of shortages to:
All NHS Staff
Key workers to the public; delivery drivers, supermarket customer service assistants,police etc 
Any worker in continous contact with public
To supress the transmission of coronavirus, reduce the spread of COVID-19 and for the safety, well being, peace of mind of individual helping the public regardless of symptoms presented by the public or by the worker.
Or failing this for all public workers to be tested frequently for safety and piece of mind of others around them i.e public or family.
This is because of the asymptomatic spread of COV-SARS-2 / Coronavirus.
This in theory could reduce risk to public workers and the public.
