LABOUR is urging Matt Hancock to make the vaccination of key workers and black and minority ethnic (BAME) people a priority as they have “disproportionate” rates of coronavirus infection.

Shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth called on his Tory counterpart to act in response to “alarming” findings revealed ahead of the Commons session.

Imperial College London’s React survey shows that there are “disproportionate infection rates among key workers” and “among BME communities.”
