This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Make all WHO approved vaccines for covid 19 available in the UK.
There are vaccines available outside the UK e.g. the Chinese vaccine Sinopharm which doesn’t involve any new technology in it’s making. It’s success has been seen in many countries outside UK e.g. Pakistan and Middle East. If WHO has approved it, why is it not available for people in UK.
More details
People are hesitant to take vaccines either because they have been made with some new technology or because of the related side effects. We urge the government to make available all the WHO approved vaccines to UK so that more people come forward to get vaccinated which in turn will be beneficial for the whole of the population. There should be an option for people to choose from the WHO approved vaccines available.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Approval of vaccines is a decision for the MHRA and not the UK Government or Parliament.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
