Rejected petition Re-instate Shielding. Stay home if you can not work from home.

More details

Without Government advice many who want/need to shield have no choice, its either shield and face financial poverty, or work and face long term health complications or even death. We ask that the Welsh Government provides support the CEV who cant work from home to stay at home.
Shielding is a choice, however individuals right to autonomy can not be exercised without official advice from the Government to shield.
We implore the Government help protect us.
