Increase Coronavirus testing to understand spread & infection rates.
Set up more drive through Coronavirus testing points or other testing methods so that all with symptoms can be tested quickly and easily.
It is impossible to assess the rate of spread and infection rates and therefore appropriate actions to be taken by individuals and government.
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 Government to provide publicly accessible testing for coronavirus around the UK, which you might want to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/301354
