AP-NORC poll: Most Americans who haven’t been vaccinated against COVID-19 say they are unlikely to get the shots and doubt they would work against the aggressive delta variant, despite evidence they do.

Nationally, 56.4% of all Americans, including children, have received at least one dose of the vaccine, according to the CDC. And White House officials said Thursday that vaccinations are beginning to increase in some states where rates are lagging behind and COVID-19 cases are rising, including in Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Missouri and Nevada.

And overall, Republicans are far more likely than Democrats to say they have not been vaccinated and definitely or probably won’t be, 43% to 10%. Views are also divided along age and education lines: Thirty-seven percent of those under age 45 say they haven’t and likely won’t get the shots, compared with just 16% of those older. And those without college degrees are more likely than those with them to say they aren’t and won’t be vaccinated, 30% to 18%.

He said it’s obvious the shots have been effective, though it bothers him a little that they have only emergency use authorization from the Food and Drug Administration. The difference is fueled largely by Republicans, 32% of whom say they approve of Biden’s handling of COVID-19 compared with 15% who approve of him overall. About 9 in 10 Democrats approve of Biden overall and for his handling of the pandemic.

“That gave me high confidence that they worked,” said McMasters. Her parents both were infected but did not suffer serious illness, and both have since been vaccinated.

It is jusst too bad so many Democrat politicians (like Katie Hill) denounced the 'Trump vaccine' as being nothing but a political plot right before the election. Probably scared a lot of people away from it. Since a whole lot of unvaccinated people are black.

People in this country will continue to refuse to get vaccinated unless we begin to require vaccinations for entrance to events, schools, workplaces, etc. Unfortunately, Americans don’t do things for the good of the country- only for the good of themselves. That has become clear.

Good for them. Darwin Award, one less MaGat vote. Move on.

Now is the time for Patriots to begin massive Protests for MedicalChoice and stop MedicalTyranny Freedom NoForcedVaccinations FightBack Retweet if you agree we have strength in numbers!

If covid gave everyone weeks of explosive diarrhea folks would be fighting over shots.

Hospitals need to have its own mandate: ‘no vaccine,no admission if infected’! You are too late!

Im thinking by the end of the year they would wish they caught the Delta variant

I hope when they plan to die miserably at home without wasting the time and resources of hospitals.

Isreal scientists just showed they’re only 40% effective against the Delta. And none of them stop infection or transmission. With a 99.8% chance of recovery, what’s the point?

The GOP’s very clever voter suppression strategy.

It's called thinning the herd

EU released their data. Inconvenient truths for people with COVID boners.

LIES about the vaccine have caused this!!! FoxNews and the GOP are to blame! GetVaccinated!!! 💉❤️🙏😷

Even with all the stories of sick, unvaccinated people in ICUs and ERs begging healthcare workers to save their lives, it's that good ol' magical belief that somehow it just won't happen to you.

Can’t fix stupid.

More lies. I personally know of two persons, presently dying in the hospital that have had these concoctions injected into them. It didn't help at all. So quit the lies and the agenda on pushing these enhanced gene therapy drugs.

Good, sign a waiver declining treatment as well.

.ap The media & government are now pushing the BIG lie that un-vaccinated ppl are causing the spike in cv-19. Government want the un-vaccinated & vaccinated Americans to fight amongst each other. It's the same play book they use to get black & white to fight each other. CNN
