Offer parents the choice to vaccinate their children against covid-19

Petition Details

Healthy children who turned 5 on or before 31 August 2022 are not able to access vaccines and I would like this changed urgently to enable parents to decide what is best for their families.

All children over 6 months should be able to be vaccinated if their parents wish.

Additional Information

One study found that 1 in 7 children who caught covid had symptoms 15 weeks later. Another study found that Covid has been a leading cause of death in young people in the US. Every preventable death of a child is too many.
