running multple instance of a function python

I have a function readLatestOp(), the function interacts with mongodb and sqlite. I want to run multiple instance of this function concurrently to test my concurrency control mechanism. How do I go about this. So I want to call readLatestOp() maybe 10 times runing them concurrently

def readLatestOp():

try:

    account = raw_input("Enter the account ID: ")
    started = time.clock()

    calSTime = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
    print(calSTime)
    cursor = conn.execute("select * from SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION where DEST_ID = ? AND T_COMMIT ISNULL OR SOURCE_ID = ? and T_COMMIT ISNULL", (account, account))
    result = (cursor.fetchone())
    while time.clock() - started < 5 and result is not None:

        cursor = conn.execute("select * from SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION where DEST_ID = ? AND T_COMMIT ISNULL OR SOURCE_ID = ? and T_COMMIT ISNULL", (account, account))
        result = (cursor.fetchone())

    findLatest = db.accounts.find_one({"_id" :  account})
    calFTime = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
    print(calFTime)
except ValueError as err:
    print(err)
    print('You entered a wrong error')
    sys.exit(1)

if result is not None:
    print("Data not avaialable")
else:
    return findLatest
