What the petition asks

Rescind all contracts with current companies providing Covid-19 testing and tracing that have failed to fulfil their contracts, and hand all aspects of testing and contact tracing back to the NHS.
The current system does not protect public health. It only makes private companies richer. Hand all services back to the NHS.
