Prioritise early years practitioners to urgently receive Covid 19 vaccine.

What the petition asks

Vaccinate early years settings staff urgently.
Early years settings will act as a vector for transmission and it is unfair to put staff and their families in danger. They are the only setting that cannot meet the government guidance in social distancing and if you expect them to continue to work through this pandemic you need to protect them.
