No school child should be forced to wear a mask as in violation of Article 6.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Article 6 CONSENT of the Universal Declaration of Biomedics & Human Rights is being violated. PM said himself it was nonsensical. Studies have shown the masks to have little or no effect on transmission, but a huge effect on learning and socialising.
GOV is in violation of the Universal declaration of Human Rights. No consent has been obtained from parents.
