Prioritise immediate family of healthcare workers for Covid-19 vaccinate

Closed 50 signatures

What the petition asks

We think it is imperative that immediate family living with healthcare workers, such as Doctors and Nurses, should be given priority for the Covid-19 vaccine, to ensure that they are protected from the virus.
Many family members of healthcare workers are concerned about the risk to themselves, but it is not practical to socially distance or isolate themselves from healthcare workers – who are at high risk of contracting Covid-19 – who they live with.
