The government has a responsibility to recognise and acknowledge its own findings and apply what recommendations are made without prejudice. I want the government to immediately accept BAME communities should be offered the vaccine now in the same way as the most vulnerable have. This is not a time for a long debate and the facts speak for themselves. The government needs to appreciate in treating BAME communities as less of a priority for early vaccination could be viewed as institutional racism.
