The immunisation rate for people with black African heritage stands at 58.8 per cent, the lowest of all ethnic minority groups.
‘But the worst nightmare would be if you then add a pocket of the black community who then start dying or getting ill because they are not taking up this vaccine, then that would be a real tragedy.’ However Mr Emmanuel-Jones told Metro.co.uk the need for people to take personal responsibility for others in the face of overwhelming evidence that the jabs are safe.‘Thirty million people have had it, those people who want to hide behind conspiracy theories need to look at the day-to-day evidence.‘For each individual black person this is not just for them but for the community and society as a whole.
