COVID-19 vaccination - protect key workers ahead of those under 65 and healthy
We request that the Government offers a vaccination for COVID-19 to all key workers (those who are defined as Critical Workers by the Government) ahead of those under 65 who do not have underlying health conditions (e.g. anyone in Phase 1 Priority Group 7 or below).
For the last 9 months we have all hugely benefited from the selfless dedication of our key workers. Every working day they have faced (and continue to face) far greater risks of catching COVID than the majority of us who are be able to stay at home. We want to show our support for them in a real way by putting the protection of their health ahead of ours (for example, the general adult population who aren't in Phase 1 Groups 1-6). Please only sign this if you are under 65 and healthy.
The definition of key worker: anyone who is defined as a Critical Worker https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-maintaining-educational-provision/guidance-for-schools-colleges-and-local-authorities-on-maintaining-educational-provision#critical-workers
