Rejected petition Stop closing our local Hospitals and A&E in Kent

We would like the government to stop closing our hospitals down then selling off the land to private developers. We would like you to start building new hospitals on the existing sites.

More details

We feel that closing hospital down costs lives and moving into distant areas will cost even more lives. As some injuries need to be taken care of straight away or if not as quick as possible.
So moving them over 20 TO 30 miles away will definitely cause more injuries and more severe cases of Paralysis or Deaths.
