Among an ongoing national survey, the majority of the American population has shared positive attitudes regarding getting the Covid-19 vaccine.
James Druckman, Payson S. Wild Professor of political science in the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences at Northwestern and associate director of the University’s Institute for Policy Research, has been keeping track of the survey’s progress.
Druckman states,
“One of the most notable findings is the racial disparity with African-Americans reporting substantially lower likelihoods of being vaccinated. Given the disproportional effect the virus has had on African-Americans, this is an important gap to consider moving forward.”
