BTW the reason the media hasn’t highlighted this before seems to be because the UK and London government haven’t done so either, and that’s because the unvaccinated are mainly first- or second-generation immigrants who they don’t want to be seen as criticizing.
Hence also for the last year the unvaccinated have been characterized (on the UK media I follow) as ‘vaccine hesitant’ rather than ‘anti-vaxxers’, with detailed explanations for why they might not want to be vaccinated. Which is reasonable, and actually a rare example of (in effect) steelmanning in the media.
