What the petition asks
It is unclear what level of protection is provided by a single dose of Covid vaccine. We are we not protecting our teens properly from Covid as we have done for the adult population. These vaccines were approved in June'21 by the MHRA for this age group.
Approve a 2nd dose of Covid vaccine for 12-17 year olds, in line with adults, to ensure they are properly protected this winter.
