Only 45% of Americans age 50 and older say they're likely to get the updated COVID-19 vaccine this season, according to a poll today from the University of Michigan.
The poll shows many at high risk of severe illness appear unlikely to seek the vaccine, and interest in an updated vaccine varies widely by age-group, education level, and other factors.
The results come from the National Poll on Healthy Aging conducted in August. At the time of polling, new COVID vaccines were not yet widely available, but they had been approved for use and endorsed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Among adults 75 and older, 59% said they were likely to get the updated COVID-19 shot, with 49% of them saying they’re very likely and 10% saying they're somewhat likely. Among adults 65 to 74, 51% said they were likely to get the vaccine.
Level of education plays a role Among those aged 50 to 64, more said they were unlikely to get the new vaccine; 55% unlikely, compared with 37% likely.
In 2023, nearly half of all US COVID hospitalizations were among those ages 75 and older.
The poll showed demographic differences as well. Adults with a Bachelor's degree were more likely to get vaccinated—54%, compared with 41% of those with lower levels of education. Overall, women were slightly more likely than men to say they would be vaccinated.

That's half the battle, prescription drugs generally have a tradeoff.
“Level of education plays a role Among those aged 50 to 64, more said they were unlikely to get the new vaccine; 55% unlikely, compared with 37% likely. “
Judging by that wording then I would say that whoever wrote it did not have an education.
These people represent what was formally known as a Phase IV clinical trial that the FDA mandated pharmaceutical companies comply with before mass marketing a new drug/vaccine. Today, dopey Americans, largely Democrats, volunteer to test the vaccine for free mostly because they have been scared into thinking they are at risk from a virus that has all the impact of a cold.
That’s why a vax for the common cold was never developed, because of mutations.

Florida’s guidance re the killer shots is simple.
Don’t do it!
The guidance, issued by the Florida Department of Health on Thursday, advises Florida doctors and other medical providers against giving updated mRNA vaccines manufactured by Pfizer and Moderna.
Doctors concerned about protecting patients over 65 or with underlying health conditions that leave them vulnerable to the virus should use the protein-based Novavax vaccine, the guidance states.
Probably far less than that— if these people want to LIVE another 10-15 years. Fool us once— shame on them. But twice—HELL NO! Gene therapy that is gene destruction. Get wise people.
My wife had shingles about 15 years ago, and it was pretty bad. I still don’t want the shot. Not everyone who had chickenpox will develop shingles.
What do Gas dr and The Duke have to say?
Will they be getting their boosters?
Bet the real uptake figure is a lot lower...
I personally know two people who died in their sleep. Not close personal friends or relatives. People I know from the dog showing industry.
You see to show a dog at the Westminster Kennel Club show you had to show proof of vaccination. So, most professional dog handlers got vaxed. Two most likely paid with their lives(IMHO).
I know of two other people who had heart problems. They are both young men in their twenties in the best shape of their lives.
My son took the J&J shot so that he could get a job as a scientist at a major Pharma corp(NOT Pfizer or Moderna).
He is a microbiologist. Went to college for Biotechnology.
He said the J&J was the best of the three for men.
He still broke out with hives the next day.
He took benedryl for a couple days and it went away.
He then had an irregular heart beat issue.
Went to the ER once.
Thankfully it went away.
I know another guy who I used to work with is still having heart problems. He is 60. He never had heart problems until he took the Moderna vax.
At least the Sneetches were able to get their "stars" removed.

And most folks who do get the shingles are one and done.
Also, if you can get to a doc’s office within 24 hours (IIRC) of onset of symptoms, there are antiviral therapeutics that can shorten the outbreak.
Two other good points.
My trust in the CDC, FDA, NIH, NIAID, Big Pharma, Gates, Fauci, the WEF, and the Medical Industrial Complex is still deep in negative territory.
Way to see the SILVER LINING.
I look at this way. IF these people are stupid/ignorant enough to take these vaccines still after all the bad information out there then they deserve what they get.
Sorry Jesus.
I look at it as CULLING the Herd. Plus, as you pointed out. It is much heavier to Dems/Liberals than it is to Rep/Conservatives. This long term gets rid of the DNA of stupid people.
Trust the science.
I probably will never get another vaccine again in my life.
Way too high percentage.
More like 99.9995%
Plus I will not take anything through a needle unless I am unconscious in the ER and have no say. To much rumbling from Gates et al about putting the MRNa in every shot.
Three years ago you would have been burned at the stake publically and here on FR you probably would have been quarantined for months by many...
