Rejected petition Close down construction sites to stop spread of Covid 19.
Lots of people in the construction undustry are congregating on building sites, large and small. The workers often have to travel a long way to get to their work. So, when they go home, if they have the Covid-19 virus, then they are spreading it over a very wide area.
More details
Also, as construction is a potentially dangerous profession, then the chances of injuries, therefore having to go to hospital is quite high.
