1 in 4 Americans says they would refuse COVID-19 vaccine, poll says


WFTS ABC Tampa Bay: 1 in 4 Americans says they would refuse COVID-19 vaccine.
[According to a new ABC News/Ipsos released Friday]...Those Americans who are opposed to getting a vaccine, experts say, often fall into one of two categories. But, unlike most things in American politics and concerning the coronavirus outbreak, those groups are not partisan in nature, with about equal proportions of Democrats and Republicans saying they were likely to get the vaccine.

"There's always been an anti-vaccine group of individuals that are going to refuse vaccines no matter what," said Dr. Carlos del Rio, an infectious disease expert, and a professor of medicine, epidemiology and global health at Emory University. "The question is, how do they impact other people."
Not that I put faith in polls...just taking note of the Covid-19  anti-Vax crowd. Add me as skeptical and declining it as well. Would you get vaccinated for Covid-19?
