Petition Action

Deploy the medical branches of the military to help deal with the Coronavirus

Petition Details

Deploy a tri-service coalition of military doctors and nurses to help ease the effects of the Coronavirus on the NHS.

Additional Information

With the Coronavirus due to get worst over the coming weeks, the NHS will be under prolonged stress which will be unsustainable.

So following in the footsteps of France, I believe we should deploy the military in order to ease the pressure off the NHS and therefore we will be prepared for a long battle against the virus.
