Reprioritise Asthma Sufferers for COVID Vaccines

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I urge the UK Government to reconsider the priority for Asthma Sufferers to receive a Covid Vaccine to prevent unnecessary deaths or long term side effects such as “long COVID” for a large proportion of the population.

I’ve suffered with asthma since the age of 8, Im now 30. And in the last 24 hours I’ve just found out I am no longer a priority for a COVID vaccine. It wont be long before we [Asthma sufferers] are expected to return to the work place with no vaccine to offer additional protection. If we are a priority for a seasonal flu jab why are we no longer a priority for a vaccine against this deadly respiratory disease? Please help us from becoming the next top COVID Statistic and sign this petition.
