What the petition asks
Halt the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccine in the 12-16 age group until a proper and lengthy study of the vaccination in Children has been actioned, and the pros of the outcome of the study outweigh the cons.
Typically it takes 10-15 years for a new drug or inoculation to go through all three phases of testing and research to be licensed.
Children returned to School in the new year with the promise that they were safe from the virus, at minimal risk and should continue to access education in person.
Children in this age group may have underlying health conditions that have not been diagnosed or have shown symptoms.
It is dangerous to vaccinate healthy children and the government must stop this now.
