Rejected petition Automatic suspension for all nurses and care staff who carry out their weekly shop in their uniforms

More details

I am a Nurse by profession. Given all the hype about infection control, the spread of, and prevention. I really feel incensed when I see Nurses,qualified and un qualified, including community care staff and carers from nursing homes completing their weekly shop in their Uniforms after their working day has ended. This is irresponsible and unprofessional. They could have been dealing with infectious diseases, then passing it on to vulnerable members of the public who are out doing their weekly shop. In this day and age, this should not be happening!
