Make regular Covid-19 testing available to all fire fighters

Closed 45 signatures

What the petition asks

Fire fighters need regular testing as they may not only be going to vulnerable people but they could be helping people who have Covid, including when this is not known.
Weekly testing should be available until fire fighters are vaccinated. Firefighters have been left to get on with their job during Covid with no testing, which could help protect their families and prevent onward transmission of the virus.
