Increase vaccination priority for moderate risk (clinically vulnerable) people

Closed 159 signatures

What the petition asks

I'm calling for people who are judged at moderate risk (clinically vulnerable) from Covid-19 to be given increased priority in the Covid-19 vaccination programme.

They either need to be included in Group 6 or included in the very first group of phase 2.
The Prime Minister has stated that the clinically vulnerable are being vaccinated now:

As it stands many individuals classed at moderate risk (clinically vulnerable) by the NHS (https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/people-at-higher-risk/whos-at-higher-risk-from-coronavirus/) are not due to receive a vaccine in group 6.

These individuals are worried about being unprotected when lockdown is eased.
