Petition Extend death in service benefits for COVID19 to NHS or care worker's household

Unfortunately some NHS and care workers will lose loved ones in their households to COVID 19 as a result of their work and the government should adequately compensate the risk of sacrifices that key workers make when these tragic set of events occur.

More details

The government has introduced a payment of £60000 to any key worker who loses their life due to COVID 19. This should be extended to any family member in the household of the key workers if they become infected and subsequently lose their life as a result of the work of the key worker.
