Americans are divided on the forthcoming coronavirus vaccine as just 51% say they would get vaccinated for the disease if a vaccine was available today, according to a Pew Research Center poll.
That's a 21% drop from May, when 72% of Americans said they would definitely or probably get a vaccine.
The percentage who say they would definitely get a vaccine has been cut in half to just 21%.

Not surprise.
Who would want to get an untested, rushed, vaccine, which has the potential of lasting side effects — and for a disease which is much less worse than the flu, for anyone under 60?
People screaming the Loudest about the Fake Pandemic should be required to get it first
Wrong,no one should be required
Seems like many of that 51% could use a sanity check. For the Dem part of the 51%, there isn’t any hope.
They didn’t ask me so that’s slightly lower than 51%.
Vitamins D3 & C.
I would look at the available data, do my own assessment of risk/benefit, and then make up my mind. I suppose on a poll that would be categorized as “undecided”.
Considering 75% wouldnt be stupid enough to get in line to be first, who cares?
Ok by me, I want to be first in line.
The obese, aged and diabetics should be the first focus (voluntarily, of course). That will take 4 months minimum. By then, we’ll know how many side effects it has.
You got it Toyota.

What do you think happens during all the phase trials?
There are supposed to be more anti-vaxxers on the left, than on the right.

I want the vaccine ASAP because I like to travel outside the US. And, I am a Trump supporter. I guess in your opinion, that makes me stupid. So be it, I don’t value your opinion.
When were they. Trials on a vaccine usually take several years.
Yawn. We don’t believe in flu vaccines.
You must have been asleep for the past few months. There’s a term you should research - Warp Speed. Yes, three months takes three months to pass but the paper shuffling that occurs before Phase 1 and between the other phases can be compressed. Also, the politicking can be reduced. Sorry.
