Petition Action

Close all takeaways during the Coronavirus outbreak

Petition Details

I want all takeaways closed during the outbreak of covid 19 as there are not enough precautions in place in takeaways. Customers stand next to each other to que while waiting for their food, also the employees are at risk as they are in contact with alot of people within a day.

Additional Information

Employees are at risk aswell as customers as their are alot of people they come in contact with and there is not enough precautions in place imagine if one person has covid 19 and walks into a takeaway. How many people could this then be passed onto? Their is hundreds of people walking in and out of takeaways elderly people, young children, nhs workers, key workers etc. Can you see all the risk to these people going to a takeaway to get some food? It is not safe enough just like restaurants!!!
