As more Americans get vaccinated, 41% of Republicans still refuse COVID-19 shots

As fewer people die from the coronavirus, the pace of vaccinations is stalling, and four out of 10 Republicans say they do not plan to get a vaccine, according to the latest PBS NewsHour/NPR/Marist poll.

On Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said people who are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus no longer need to mask up in most situations. But how state and local governments, along with individual businesses, interpret that guidance remains to be seen, and some adults who are vaccinated may be uneasy about adopting the new restrictions.

The worst-case scenario is that unvaccinated people could feel emboldened to go maskless, placing themselves and others at risk of infection, said Dr. Megan Ranney, an emergency physician and associate dean of strategy and innovation at the Brown University School of Public Health.

  1. Such a garbage article – politically motivated, total bs

    328 million people in the US

    31% identified as Democrats,
    25% identified as Republican
    41% as Independent
    3% as nothing
    = 100%

    This breakdown to
    102 million democrats
    82 million republicans (34 million no vaxx at 41%)
    135 million independents
    9 million ?
    = 328 million

    196 million vaxxed = 328 million x 60% (so they say)
    -34 million republicans that refuse
    162 million not vaxxed which would consist of 128 million mostly democrats and independents and only 34 million republicans

    Do the F’in math.
