It could be that a lot of folks are on the fence. But yeah I'm generally feeling pretty pessimistic about humanity after watching half my country deny science up to the point they're gasping for air.
Good stuff in the UK the NHS is only offering Covid boosters to those in front-line medicine/caring and the over 65s. In that context 50% of the US population planning to get jabbed sounds (literally) quite healthy
Now that's not exactly what the polling data says, it says 23% plan to get the shot, while another 23% might get the shot. I'd like to think those who say they might get it will definitely get it but we know a lot of them won't be getting the shot.
