Health care workers to receive honours in 2021 honours list
I would like health care workers at hospitals and care homes to be nominated for honours in the 2021 honours list for all their work treating people with coronavirus.
They have put the need of others above those of their own and their family.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We cannot accept petitions that call for specific awards or honours to be given to individuals or organisations, because we can only accept petitions about matters for which the Government or Parliament are responsible for.
There is an independent process for considering nominations for awards and honours, and advising the Queen on granting these, so it is not something the Government or Parliament can do.
The Government has announced that it is delaying Her Majesty The Queen’s Birthday honours list until the Autumn so people who have made a contribution to the fight against coronavirus can be recognised and celebrated: www.gov.uk/government/speeches/oliver-dowdens-statement-on-coronavirus-covid-19-20-may-2020
You can nominate someone who has made an exceptional contribution to the response to the coronavirus crisis in the UK for an award here: www.gov.uk/honours/nominate-someone-for-coronavirus-work
