White NHS staff are almost TWICE as likely as black medics to get a Covid vaccine

White NHS staff are almost twice as likely as black medics to get the Covid vaccine, according to data. The figures have prompted experts to warn that jab hesitancy among health workers could undermine the national roll-out.  Only 64 per cent of staff at University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust had taken up the offer to get their first dose by February 3, a study showed. While uptake was 71 per cent in white medics, the highest of any group, it plunged to half this level in black staff. This was despite research showing BAME groups are at higher risk of serious illness and death if they catch the virus.
