Keep schools closed in the UK until an effective Cov-19 vaccine is available.
Keep UK schools closed until a successful Covid-19 vaccine is widely available to all members of the public. Efforts/funding should be solely focused on research, PPE provision, re-establishment of effective nationalised social services, support for long distance learning, and housing/food security.
Not enough is known about Cov-19 transmission or its long term health effects-nor is immunity guaranteed. Reopening of schools prior to the widespread availability of a successful vaccine would be based on governmental speculation and dangerous wishful thinking rather than facts. By opening schools before a vaccine is ready, the government risks compounding the already atrocious number of unnecessary deaths within our population-that very population the government is elected and paid to protect.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
