What the petition asks
Allow rapid testing in prisons for visitors & inmates to allow visits to resume.
Prisoners and their family’s are suffering from not being able to see each other! I feel as tho rapid testing would give us the opportunity to visit our loved ones as normal. Allowing children/partner and parents to hug the person they love. This will have a big impact on people’s mental health.
