Make all essential workers a priority for receiving the Covid-19 vaccine sooner

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Make essential workers a higher priority for receiving the vaccine. Especially supermarket workers, as they are/always have been putting themselves at risk every day to keep the nation fed!

Essential workers have put themselves in harms way since the beginning of Covid, making sure the country keeps going and stays fed etc, yet there are no provisions to have them vaccinated any sooner than the rest of the public that have been able to stay home and shield. I feel it's only fair that we recognise their ongoing commitments, by getting them protected sooner so that they can continue to serve the country and keep us all going!
