Rejected petition Guarantee financial help to those out of work due to the Coronavirus outbreak.

We would like to government to ensure that all people financially affected due to contracting the virus are financially supported.

More details

We want this to be done as firstly those that have to be self isolated or isolated at home will struggle to feed themselves or support their family as the time taken to recover can vary. The lack of money means there would be a knock on affect on every local economy. Finally not having to worry about income if you start showing any symptoms means you would not feel like you can't afford to be off of work, this would help prevent the spread of the virus.
