Rejected petition Private hospitals across the UK be requisitioned by the government for the NHS

Requisition all private hospitals, their 8000 beds, equipment and staff for the NHS to use in treating patients with COVID/19

More details

The NHS will not have enough beds across the UK to treat those patients requiring hospitalisation. There are currently 8000 private hospital beds in the uk that can be utilised in the attempt to save more lives. We need to unite and help the NHS deal with this crisis. It is no longer about politics. Lives have to come first.
