This is the “Waxi Taxi” that concerns people on how to get a vaccination center in the UK for rescue.
Staffand Leslie Reid, 48, said the cab was a godsend for her, as she has a compromised immune system and is afraid of taking public transportation to get the vaccine. AP reported.
He was thrilled when his doctor offered a door-to-door cab, launching a new initiative in Britain to allow minorities to be vaccinated.
“I was one of the lucky ones,” he said after getting a job in North London. “I am sure there are many more vulnerable people than I should have received. What can I say? I am very happy.”
The UK has a very effective coronavirus vaccination program. At least 30 percent of its population has received a single dose. But minorities have lagged behind.
A recent national survey found that only 72.5 percent of black people in England have either received the vaccine or will be accepted. The AP said, compared to 87.6 percent for Asians and 92.6 percent for Europeans, AP said.
In addition to Waxi Taxi, activists have organized pop-up vaccination centers in neighborhoods of minorities to encourage residents to receive the jab.
Vaccine Minister Nadim Zahavi told the AP that data is showing that people want access to the vaccine at the time of their choice and the place they trust.
