Award medals to the retired doctors and nurses who returned to NHS for COVID19

Closed 18 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe the retired doctors and nurses that have put their lives at risk to save others when called upon in this global pandemic, should receive a national medal.
These people do not have to risk their lives, yet out of a decency they answered the call of the government for aid. These are on average older doctors and nurses, some of who have died in this pandemic. The least they deserve if national recognition for there heroics
