We The people need to see our government take urgent and concise actions to prevent the present virus and related strains from further crippling the NHS. Implementing an immediate legal change to make mask or facial coverings to be a legal requirement for all. Stop all religious meetings. Stop retail click and collect. We need you to get hold and take even tougher action as the minority are not thinking about the seriousness of their actions that will kill so many.
