You could also blame people living in deprived areas and those in low-skilled jobs, who have broadly the same level of vaccine 'hesitancy', and the same %age of people who have declined a vaccine.
Some food for thought.
Adding up the ONS data for people who have been offered a vaccine, whether they accepted or not: (Figures as of 23rd May)
White: 76%
Mixed: 53%
Asian: 61%
Black: 61%
Adding up have been offered and accepted, and would be likely to accept:
White: 94%
Mixed: 88%
Asian: 92%
Black: 79%
The Asian/Asian British population want to be vaccinated at almost the same rate as the white population, they just haven't been offered yet. (ONS show positive vaccine sentiment as White: 94%, Asian: 93%)
