New analysis has revealed the people most likely to be unvaccinated against Covid-19. People who work as fitness instructors, painters, fork-lift truck drivers and actors are among those most likely to not have had the jab, the research suggests.

In the 40 to 64 age group, an estimated 16.6 per cent of fitness instructors in England had not received any vaccine, along with 16.2 per cent of painters and decorators, according to new data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

Other jobs with similarly high levels of non-vaccination among the same age group include plasterers (14.8 per cent), fork-lift truck drivers (14.4 per cent) and people employed as actors, entertainers and presenters (14.2 per cent).

All estimates are based on vaccinations delivered up to December 31 and cover only adults aged 40 to 64. The sector classed as “elementary trades and related occupations” – such as packers, bottlers, industrial cleaning or farm and forestry workers – has the highest overall rate of unvaccinated people 15 per cent, the data suggests.
