Adults without a high school degree were more than three times as likely to be unvaccinated against COVID-19 as adults with a graduate degree, and uninsured adults were more than twice as likely to be unvaccinated as insured ones, according to an analysis of 13,802 survey responses published in the journal Vaccine.
The finding that complicates the familiar story is what the same data show about trust. Among participants who said they distrusted various institutions as sources of COVID information, vaccination rates still ranged from 72.4 to 83.8 percent. Even among people who said they did not trust the Food and Drug Administration to ensure vaccine safety, 52 percent had received at least one dose.
