Why was this petition rejected?

We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.

We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.

Since this petition was started, the Government has provided funding for a new Vaccines Manufacturing and Innovation Centre. The Government said that when completed, the centre "will have have capacity to produce enough vaccine doses to serve the entire UK population in as little as six months."
