More must be done to encourage African Caribbean communities to sign up for Covid vaccines, a pastor has said.
Emmanuel Adeseko, 32, of the New Covenant Ministries, has taken part in a round-table event involving church leaders in Birmingham.
They want to encourage people in their communities to be vaccinated.
The meeting came after comments last week said uptake of the vaccine in some of the city s most vulnerable communities was as low as 50%.
Birmingham s director of public health Justin Varney said there was evidence that suggested in some areas, half of those being invited for vaccines were turning them down.
