Petition Action

Immediate and widespread testing available nationwide for Covid19

Petition Details

Immediate and transparent widespread testing for infection and antibodies in ‘drive thru’ community hubs. Combined with a rigorous two degree contact tracing and targeted area lockdowns to halt spread. This will reduce the incubators if the virus and create time for research and imminent vaccine.

Additional Information

Only a swift and comprehensive reaction to a pandemic crisis as laid out with clarity by WHO is appropriate.
Testing is a vital component and knowledge base missing in the government strategy.
People having knowledge of their status will support responsible actions and: slow spread of infection; reduce stretch on critical services; reduce number of long term health complications in survivors E.g scarred lungs which could increased susceptible to air pollution and other respiratory challenges.
