Income is another dividing line. Lower-income brackets appear to have a

There is also an age divide, with younger people being less likely
to be vaccinated than older adults.
That’s partly due to how vaccines were rolled out, with older adults
prioritized for access, as they are at the highest risk for severe Covid-19.

45 percent said they definitely would not.

Refusal is closely tied to political views.
