Vaccine hesitancy is at an all-time high. The latest Gallup survey puts the number of people in the US who may not take one of the COVID-19 vaccines at it at 42%. Despite the vocal anti-vaxxer community we hear about, this appears to be at a higher level than for the routinize childhood vaccines. You can’t use the extremely high childhood vaccine compliance levels as a guide because they’re required for school attendance. The COVID-19 vaccine may be required for certain jobs such as healthcare roles, but it won’t be required for children in the near future. They will only be approved for adults at first because testing for children will follow that of adults (which is the normal procedure — nothing nefarious about this.)
i absolutely plan to try this with any of those folks moving forward.
