What the petition asks
To allow weekly Covid 19 tests for NHS staff and care workers to give them the protection they deserve whilst caring for others.
The government voted against weekly Covid 19 testing for NHS staff and care workers. I really think that those people who put their own life at risk to care for others deserve to be treated better.
The NHS and care workers are vital in the fight to control this pandemic.
