Black, Asian and minority ethnic views on the Covid-19 vaccine
Black, Asian and minority ethnic views on the Covid-19 vaccine In February, Healthwatch Camden worked with three local community organisations to survey 223 people about their views on the Covid-19 vaccine and the local rollout. Nearly all responders (97 per cent) were from Black, Asian, or minority ethnic backgrounds. Amongst the findings in the report were: the more knowledge someone felt they had about the vaccine, the greater the likelihood of them wanting to be vaccinated; people receive most of the information about the vaccine from television and social media; and younger people and people from Black or Black British backgrounds were less likely to get the vaccine, which is consistent with existing national evidence on this topic.
