Re-start testing in the community for the Coronavirus/ Covid-19

Petition Details

Eminent scientists say we should be testing more so that we can track the virus.

We can manage our community interactions appropriately if we know if we have or have had the virus.

We need to know if we are safe to work so that we can provide a supporting function in our community.

Additional Information

We need to contribute to the global study of the virus, but we aren't testing within the community. How can we contribute a full picture?

People who could be working in essential services are in self isolation, potentially unnecessarily.

We need to know if we have it and if we get it again. The unknown causes fear. This is in itself isolating.
The impact on our mental health and in turn physical health is great.
