ALL people with coronavirus symptoms to be tested (not just those in hospital)
Instead of only testing those admitted to hospital. We should carry on testing everyone displaying symptoms of the coronavirus.
We will not get accurate numbers of infected people. We need to know the numbers so that subsequent decisions can be made to protect our country effectively.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The conduct of tests is a clinical decision for the NHS, not the UK Government or Parliament.
We have published a petition calling for the Governemnt to provide publicly accessible testing for coronavirus around the UK, which you might want to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/301354
