Prioritise POLICE officers for Covid-19 vaccination

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Include Police officers in the priority list for Covid-19 vaccination
Police officers can’t stay at home, they have to work to protect our communities. Their work is valuable during this pandemic, and often requires close contact with people who aren’t wearing PPE.
Socially distancing themselves is impossible in many situations with vulnerable and difficult people.
Our Police officers are front line workers and deserve priority vaccination to enable them to continue to work safely, for themselves, the public, and for their families at home.
