HUNDREDS of residents across mid Cheshire and Tatton have signed a petition calling for teachers to get priority access to the Covid vaccine.
The petition is urging the Government to put teachers – along with school staff and people working in childcare – on the priority list adopted by Government.
Charlotte Appleyard, who started the petition, says that such workers ‘cannot distance or use PPE’ and that the vaccine should keep them safe while also providing protection for children and their families – and cut the need for school shutdowns.
