Polling finds the delta variant hasn’t had a huge impact on convincing most vaccine refusers to get the shots, though it has noticeably gone down in some states.

For states with particularly large Covid-19 surges, Morning Consult found the spread of the delta variant hasn’t had a huge impact on vaccine refusal: Rates in Florida and Georgia stayed exactly the same betweenand August , for instance, while Tennessee’s went down from 26% to 25% and Alabama’s went from 27% to 26%.

Similar trends were seen when the vaccine refusal rate was combined with those who are merely uncertain about the vaccine: Florida’s combined rate dropped from 32% to 30% between June and August, Tennessee went from 40% to 39%, Arkansas went from 43% to 40% and rates in Georgia and South Carolina stayed the same .

Mississippi and Louisiana, which have faced particularly massive Covid outbreaks, are outliers: Mississippi went from being the state with the highest vaccine refusal rate in June to ranking fifth in August , and Louisiana went from 28% refusal, the fourth highest rate in the nation, to 22% unwilling to get the shot and not even ranking in the top 10.
