Rejected petition Support Clinical Extremely Vulnerable to stay at home UK wide.

Rejected on

Mortality from COVID-19 is a very really concern for all CEV. Many work in front line jobs where they cant work from home. Whilst many will find it hard mentally, thousands more are experiencing daming mental health through fear, stress anxiety, anguish .

Without Government advice many who want/need to shield have no choice, its either shield and face financial poverty, or work and face long term health complications or even death. We ask that all 4 nation Governments provide support the CEV who cant work from home to stay at home.
Shielding is a choice, however individuals right to autonomy can not be exercised without official advice from the Government to shield.
We implore the Government help protect us.
