Rejected petition stop the unnecessary waste of tiny plastic bags in the covid LF kits.
thousand of covid LF kits are being sent out every day. each one has 7 tiny plastic bags in for ‘waste’.These are entirely unnecessary, in most cases people are just throwing the waste directly in the bin without using the plastic bag. The same size cassette bags can be repurposed if necessary!

The government is in charge of the whole covid response. it is your job to source something environmentally friendly when you are asking millions of people to use them
