Debate on an e-petition relating to the rollout of Covid-19 vaccinations

An e-petition on Prioritise teachers, school and childcare staff for Covid-19 vaccination (554316) has received over 100,000 signatures. It calls for those working in schools and the childcare sector to be added to the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation’s (JCVI) list of priority groups to receive Covid-19 vaccinations.
