What the petition asks
This petition is to reinstate the 5 day COVID rule relaxation for the good of all UK citizens mental health at the end of what has been the most restrictive year any individual has faced in their lifetime.
The risk to mental health has not been considered, cancelling the planned time for all to spend with family is likely to have a significantly detrimental effect, which could outweigh the risk of virus spread.
