What the petition asks
Advice from the JCVI on the priority groups for a Covid-19 vaccine does not include key workers. This petition calls for these workers, who have been the heart and soul of this pandemic to be prioritised for vaccinations, they have worked non stop during this pandemic and deserve to be protected.
The government should review the possibility of key workers being vaccinated alongside priority groups. Key workers have been amongst the pandemic risking their lives to keep the country and economy going.
