Childcare workers have started a petition to get vaccine sooner

There's been a lot of talk the last few weeks about the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines and who should be getting priority?

Everyone agrees that nursing home staff should be top of the list, but what about after that? Who should be next?

A petition has been set up by childcare workers and it currently has hundreds of signatures.

Childcare workers are currently 11th on the list, but they are asking to be vaccinated the same time as frontline staff.

We spoke to childcare workers who stated their case.

You can sign the petition if you wish here.
