Celebrity campaign aims to counter Covid-19 jab misinformation targeted at ethnic minorities
Actors Adil Ray and Meera Syal, cricketer Moeen Ali and comedian Romesh Ranganathan are among celebrities who have joined forces to counter coronavirus vaccine misinformation in ethnic minority communities as a race equality thinktank called for greater government action on the issue.
The rate of Covid infections and deaths among minorities has been disproportionately high compared with the white British population but polls have suggested they are less likely to take the vaccine, with concerns raised they are being targeted by campaigners spreading anti-vaccine propaganda.
