Petition Details

Make funding available for testing for Corona virus for the wider population (not just hospitals)if a person is showing symptomse need this to happen in order to be able to successfully protect the population,particularly the people that fall within the at risk category.

Additional Information

As it stands alot of people who are not following guidelines and potentially have what they deam to be a cold, are continuing to function as normal and are putting our vulnerable population at a very high risk.
It is very difficult to stay away from those that could have the virus when there is no certainty or testing available. It is also not possible for the Government or the wider population to have a clear idea of how fast it is actually spreading.
For example there have been cases of people that have been told that they do have the virus, but will not be tested to fully confirm it.
These people are working with small children that could then carry the virus to someone vulnerable or be vulnerable themselves or indeed have a family member or friend that falls within this category.
