What the petition asks
The government should close non-essential businesses such as returns warehouses for retail due to the spread of the coronavirus.
These businesses are potentially spreading the virus with parcels from all over the UK which come into contact with different workers. Social distancing is very difficult in some of these places and the virus is spreading.
