Petition Action

Abolish domestic COVID-status certification in the United Kingdom

Petition Details

We want the Government to abolish all domestic COVID-status certification remaining in use.

Due to high vaccination & booster uptake, continued relaxation of restrictions, and fast approaching endemicity of coronavirus, it is neither right nor proportionate to continue such measures in Britain.

Additional Information

COVID-status certification is one of the most contentious issues Britain has faced since Brexit.

Serious legal & ethical issues remain if it were continued for voluntary use, especially with regard to the Human Rights Act (1998), Equalities Act (2010) & Public Health Act (1984).

As cases, hospitalisation, and mortality rates continue to plummet. Covid certification is no longer a necessary or useful tool for public health surveillance & must be expunged from our society never to return.
