Rejected petition Not allow our children to go through testing for covid-19 every week

To stop the weekly testing of covid-19 on our children

More details

Any child will find it difficult to allow people to test them, children on the spectrum or with any additional needs are going to struggle, I feel this will give any child nightmares and is an invasion of their space

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do, as there are no weekly tests of children. You can find the Government's guidance here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
