AMERICANS UNWILLING TO GET FIRST VACCINE SHOT

New polls show Americans are cautious about receiving the first batch of coronavirus vaccines. The Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll revealed only 20 percent of registered voters said they would be willing to take a vaccine once it hits the market. About half said they wanted to wait for more public consumption to see if there are any potential side effects, while some 17 percent said they would not take any vaccine.
Gallup also reported a steep drop in Americans’ willingness to be vaccinated. The poll indicated an 11 percent drop in September of those who said they would take a vaccine. The poll showed that Democrats are more likely to be vaccinated than Republicans, but have shown a decrease in comfort levels, the report said.
The WSJ reported that 20 percent of Whites and only 10 percent of Blacks would be willing to take a vaccine. In total, the Journal reported 82 percent of registered Democrats would ultimately be willing to take a vaccine and only 62 percent of Republicans.
TREND FORECAST: As we have forecast, anti-vaccine, anti-tax, anti-lockdown, anti-immigration, and pro-freedom will be platform elements of a new populist/nationalist political party in the United States.
