Petition to World Leaders to implement Coronavirus testing at Airports
Many families have been affected by hard border closures across the world despite the World Health Organization advising against it. As a way of moving forward, we need to start thinking about how people can safely travel between countries through the use of Coronavirus testing at borders.
This one small, easy to implement step, will prevent the catastrophic outbreak of Covid-19 from reoccurring. It cannot be socially acceptable in this modern era to allow such ineptitude to continue at the top of world democracy. To simply inact a small screening of inbound citizens and travellers is just a small inconvenience and expense that is required for the greater wellbeing of society as a whole.
