Low up-take of Vaccines by BAME populations

Just looking at the COVID report on the front page and having just seen a TV news comment by a doctor about the refusal of free vaccine jabs by the very people who are so highly vulnerable is plain staggering.   Yes persuasion is the way but those who still refuse, how and what can be done?   Logically anyone not vaccinated should not be permitted to mix or work with the rest of us.   It is utter madness but so many BAME people are a vital and much valued part of the NHS and many other areas of work.   What can be done?    The fact that a huge proportion of BAMEs are highly qualified top consultants, doctors, nurses, who will all (I hope) have received the vaccination jabs should have convinced these obdurate people to accept vaccinations.   What steps can be taken to enforce vaccination onto anyone coming into contact with the rest of us?

"Kept at bay"? How about chasing after them, pitchforks at the ready, pin them down, against their will, roll up their offending sleeves, jab them,  brand them, and perhaps imprison them, in solitary confinement of course? You cannot enforce vaccination on anyone - that could be construed as assault.
