Petition Action

Avoid even starting the coronavirus peak in the UK.

Petition Details

Lock down as far as possible for an initial two week period to prevent us reaching the peak - which we are no where near.

Continue and expand testing to monitor and trace contact. That is what South Korea successfully did.

Additional Information

It is ridiculous to just wait for a huge peak that is not here yet.
And then planning on and intending for 60% of the population to get Coronavirus and for (at least) 1% to die!
That equates to approximately 400,000 people! No - we want to support them and not sit back and let so many die!

Eventually we will have a vaccine - even if it takes over a year.
