What the petition asks
One day in the year when all organisations close except essential services. Those working in essential services to receive double time.
The day is to 1) Remember those who past away during Covid-19 2020 2) Educate and train people so they are made aware or never forget the virus and in the future are prepared so a pandemic can be stopped in its tracks. 3) Allow the eco system to recover and renew itself, people can appreciate fresh air and nature. Hopefully the holiday will spread world wide just like the virus and bring the world together just for one day
