Closed petition Prioritise over-55 self-employed construction workers for Covid-19 vaccination

Closed on

Offer vaccinations to self-employed construction workers over 55, many of whom are getting no financial support and have no choice but to work. Many have worked through all of the lockdowns on essential and non-essential projects, keeping services, infrastructure, hospitals open and housing ongoing.

I want the Government to give priority for vaccination to these workers so they can continue to work and support their families.

The Government did state how important construction is to the country and the economy so I think they should consider this as priority.
