Rejected petition Introduction of a National rollout Covid-19 vaccine passports

Rejected on 4 March 2021

We required the Government to commit to the introduction of a COVID-19 e-passport to protect the health and safety of the UK population from the spread of COVID-19.

The current COVID-19 vaccination is not compulsory, meaning some will refuse the vaccine. This is a pandemic effecting the world and it is everyone’s responsibility to receive the vaccine that has been offered. Those who choose not to accept the vaccine make a choice but must realise their are consequences to the choices we make. A COVID-19 e-passport will allow those who have been vaccinated to resume as normal a life as possible without the fear of a further spread of COVID-19
