Petition Action

Vaccinate all children and teachers before reopening schools.

Petition Details

Vaccinate the youth population before schools reopen. Coronavirus can and has affected our youth and it is not yet safe to return to schools. The graphs support this, by opening schools the covid rates will increase, further damaging our nation.

Additional Information

Students and teachers alike value their lives, although children may have slightly lower chances of catching the virus, they can still catch, and die from the virus. Failure to comply to this will put the blood on our MPs hands.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency is responsible for approving the safety of vaccines. At the moment, the covid-19 vaccines have only been approved for over 18s.

The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation have said that "there is very limited data on vaccination in adolescents, with no data on vaccination in younger children, at this time."
