COVID vaccine poll finds more than half of adults are likely to say 'no thanks' to the vax (Meanwhile, 70% of Democrats say they'll get the new vaccine, the survey found)

Among U.S. adults, 52% say they will "probably" or "definitely" not get the new COVID-19 vaccine, according to the latest KFF (Kaiser Family Foundation) COVID-19 Vaccine Monitor poll.

Conversely, 23% of adults "definitely" plan to get the vaccine - while another 23% will "probably" get it.

Among the people who said they "definitely" or "probably" will get the new shot, most are Democrats and/or at least 65 years old, the poll found.

Seventy percent of Democrats plan to get the new vaccine.

That's compared to just 24% of Republicans.

The survey, which was conducted between Sept. 6 and Sept. 13, polled 1,296 U.S. adults via online and telephone polls.

Based in San Francisco, KFF is a self-described "independent source for health policy research, polling and journalism."

"The poll shows that most of the nation still trusts the CDC and the FDA on vaccines - but there is a partisan gap, and most Republicans don’t trust the nation’s regulatory and scientific agencies responsible for vaccine approval and guidance," KFF's president and CEO, Drew Altman, said in a press release.

sad, even tragic, but ‘natural selection’ or as the Bible says selective breeding or ‘husbandry’ is most efficient when it’s self-imposed. may God help them.

Liberals on alligator feeding duty. They shouldn't have let the alligators get so big, powerful, and plentiful.

Seventy percent of Democrats plan to get the new vaccine.

That's one way to get rid of them.

There is one unique attribute Democrats possess.

Namely, they refuse to change their mind when they see evidence that conflicts with their original beliefs.

All Democrats that I personally know were more than happy to put on a mask or take the jab under the belief that they were saving the world from a covid virus.

So no matter how much conflicting data and evidence is released about masks not working or covid jabs causing illness or death, a Democrat will not change their minds.

“If half of adults are likely to say ‘no thanks’ to the Jim Jones Jab while 70% of Democrats say they’ll get the new shots, we can conclude that at least 20% of Democrats are not mentally adults.”

But there’ll be measurably fewer dimbulbcrats around after a few months. Net benefit for humanity.

It's funny how they separated the democrats from the adults - are they saying the democrats are children?

So this pollster says, “The poll shows that most of the nation still trusts the CDC and the FDA on vaccines…”, while the poll itself shows 52% not likely to get another vax shot. Math challenged or just trying to apply some liberal spin to the inconvenient results?

I see no indication of independents being polled. Just taking the separate DEM and REP numbers pretty much produces the poll’s overall outcome. So, either the INPs polled almost exactly in line the overall breakouts, or they skipped the INPs numbers because they were more on side with the REP, further screwing the overall numbers to indicate even less will take the vax again.

70% will bye and bye reduce the number of Democrats so that’s a plus.

Well, since this new jab was only tested on 8 mice (R.I.P.?) prior to the Biden regime approving it, human testing can now begin, courtesy the “emergency use authorization”.
Go get yours today!
“Safe and effective”!

The government has begun to fund studies on putting MRNa vaxx into vegetables. Bill Gates seems to be connected to that endeavor. They are concerned with ways to control the dose. It is already in beef and pork. I eat a lot more chicken these days. I reckon I will have to tattoo my thumb green and start trying to grow vegetables.

Libs should take the shots 52% of adults that don’t want it.

They do need to be encouraged to get their annual boosters. Those that do will enter Paradise and meet their ̃72 rabbits in 14 years or so.
