Indian health facilities are overwhelmed by COVID and their government is relying on a vaccination programme to get on top of the pandemic but their vaccination stocks are very low. The UK on the other hand has already vaccinated over 50% of its adult population, has plenty of vaccines and many more on order. It would be grossly unfair to the Indian people to insist on vaccines manufactured there being exported to the UK when their need is so much greater than ours.

Nurses are not well paid and if they end up a parking ticket which could cost around £60 easily which I think is criminal. With FREE Parking whilst on duty they would not face such steep parking Fines. Medical staff are giving us (the patients) a fantastic service which is not well rewarded but this concession of FREE paring whilst on Duty is a very small price to pay.

Women are suffering being left in pain and not being taken seriously with their prolapse problems. Things need a serious over haul and ladies with these conditions need to be taken seriously and given priority in women's health along with smear tests and mammograms. Regular checks and more support given. More awareness given postnatally of the many different types of prolapse, such as rectocele and cystocele and their names. Education could start at high school age for young adults about these issues early awareness is vital

Leaf blowers are contributing to the "insect armageddon" which currently threatens all life on earth. They are fatal to insects and should not be used unless absolutely "indispensable", the German government recently told its citizens. In 2019 the German government announced a roughly €100m (£85m) action plan to protect insects, which also included shoring up environmental regulation and limiting the use of pesticides. The controversial weed killer glyphosate will be banned by 2023. Yet, here in the UK, both leaf blowers and pesticides are regularly used, privately and by councils, from schools to parks, gardens to streets, to keep green spaces 'tidy', even when everything in their path is scorched and obliterated. Small animals, insect species, plants, topsoil… nothing is left undestroyed. Noisy leaf blowers are heavily polluting and pose the“risk that [insects and] small animals are absorbed or blown and thereby damaged”, the German Ministry for the Environment has said. The move followed a report from a top UK ecologist which warned bugs are dying out 8 times faster than larger animals, with 40 per cent of the roughly one million known insect species facing extinction as a result. “If insect declines are not halted, terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems will collapse, with profound consequences for human wellbeing,” Professor Dave Goulson’s report for the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust concluded. “The main causes of decline include habitat loss and fragmentation, and the overuse of pesticides. Wild insects are routinely exposed to complex cocktails of toxins which can cause either death or disorientation and weakened immune and digestive systems.” Leaf blowers are another huge part of the problem. “Leaf blowers are not only deafeningly loud and pollute the air through their internal combustion engines, they also harm the soil biology seriously.” Despite scores of cities across the US having previously instituted restrictions or bans on leaf-blowers, here in the UK they remain an almost daily fact of life. The dangers posed by leaf blowers hint at a larger trend that is harming insect populations, according to Dr Edward Turner, a lecturer at the University of Cambridge’s zoology department and curator of insects at the university’s zoology museum. “I think that leaf blowers fall into the category of being ‘too tidy’ and this can be very bad for insects,” according to Dr Turner. “Generally, if we were to cut our road verges and open grass areas less frequently, let some weeds grow along our pavements, and leave leaves to decompose more, I think it would benefit insects a lot.“Really importantly ... We should limit our use of herbicides and insecticides to an absolute minimum, especially in our urban green spaces and gardens. Basically, I think we just need to be a little less tidy and a little more tolerant of ‘weeds’ and I think insects and therefore lots of other species would benefit.” A leaf blower’s engine is environmentally awful. Designed to be air-cooled, (their original design was for crop spraying) 100% of their exhaust emissions spew directly into the area around them. They are also gas guzzlers. One hour of leaf blowing puts as many pollutants in the atmosphere as a sedan driven sedately for about 180 kilometres. One cheap leaf blower’s pollution is greater than an average-size long-distance lorries. Yet they are the main method used to keep children’s playgrounds free of leaves… They excrete high frequency sound waves with decibel levels that far exceed acceptable limits. Hearing damage begins to occur when someone is around “extended exposure” to any sound of 85 decibels or higher. Just two hours of operating a leaf blower, which hits 90 decibels, can cause permanent damage and hearing loss. The greater the exposure, the deafer the person operating the leaf blower will become. Given the decibel damage, even if the leaf blower is being used at the house next door, you will be subject to some ear damage. Please help me to get both leaf blowers and pesticides restricted unless “indispensable”. We are at the point of collapse for many insect populations - most well-known is the rate at which bees are dying – and can’t afford to keep inadvertently destroying our green spaces in the name of maintenance. Insect collapse would mean human collapse. We are also deafening children and each other, while poisoning and polluting the natural spaces we most rely on for human health.

As a clothing brand that promotes a gym style aesthetic, it's important to not exclude those who are already shamed for not being healthy, and making them feel unwelcome in that kind of environment. The world is moving so fast and its time to accept everyone in every form.

The proposals would, among other things: - increase fragmentation of the NHS by putting Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) on a statutory footing - embed a postcode lottery, so that the health and social care services that you can access will vary depending on where you live - open up the opportunity for private companies to have a say in what health and social care is provided in an area – creating huge potential for conflicts of interest - allow hospitals to discharge vulnerable patients before they have been assessed for NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) and NHS Funded Nursing Care (FNC), leaving families to pick up the pieces – and leaving those without family potentially at risk of being left without the care they need - bring uncertainty to the future of the NHS workforce by failing to set out any precise limits to the scale and scope of any restructuring - leave the issue of access to and the funding of social care unaddressed – yet again It is simply wrong for the government to rush ahead with such major changes while NHS and care staff are exhausted from fighting Covid-19 and at a time when meaningful public engagement, including public meetings, can't take place. The government will soon be publishing a Bill to bring its proposals into effect and make them law. This petition is designed to put pressure on the government to do the right thing, pause the process until after all Covid-19 restrictions are lifted, and then carry out a full public consultation so that patients, NHS staff, care workers and unpaid carers can have their say. It is vital Boris Johnson listens to our concerns and takes action.

With more than 141000 people living on the Island any person needing Radiotherapy has to travel to the mainland for treatment which can incur a journey which can last up to 5/6 hour's for treatment that last's about 20 minute's.

Because the cost of hospital stays especially mental health wards is extremely expensive and I have two members of my family who are ove pensionable age and caring for both my mother and my father and they get now help from the government and my carers can be in minimum wage and working 12 hours a day sometimes without a break and they need more money to tske care of their childcare etx

I am a type 2 diabetic just been put on insulin very scary, after 4 days of blood testing sticking my fingers with needles 3 times more than I used to before insulin my fingers are very painful I am also on blood thinners which in turn makes it very difficult to stem the flow of the blood, I am now thinking this is for the rest of my life I need help this is barbaric and medieval this day and age sticking needles in your fingers any thing up to 8 times a day it is torture. So I searched the internet looking for some help and the only thing I could find was the LIBRE blood testing system where you do not have to stick needles into your fingers, as I read up on this system it explained how you put a censor in the top of your arm every 14 days and you can read your blood sugars via your mobile phone or the small electronic unit they supply. To my amazement as I read on that they do supply this system on NHS prescriptions I thought great what a savior, then I read on further they only give it to type 1 diabetics why I ask the illness is the same the treatment is the same there is no difference only the medical reason each individual was given as to why they are diabetic our treatment is exactly the same, we both inject and test our bloods up to 8 times a day, so please could you make this system available to type 2 diabetics on insulin.

NHS workers and staff deserve a proper pay rise. The government saying that 1% pay rise is enough is quite insulting, as the staff work hard during this pandemic to protect and care for patients, therefore it is unacceptable and may be the last straw for many employees. It is about time that a decent deal is made for NHS staff that is fair, necessary and affordable. It is time for Britain to speak up for NHS to put pressure on decision makers to approve of additional investment in health services and funding for a significant pay rise.

The UK should recognize her role in our vaccination success.

The amount of ladies having breast cancer is enormous and way too many are dying because screening isn't available until you are 50. I was one of the lucky ones at the age of 38 been diagnosed with Breast Cancer and now a survivor.
