Only Half Of Americans Say They Will Vaccinate Their Children Against Covid-19 As Soon As They're Eligible

Only half of Americans intend on getting their children immunized against Covid-19 as soon as vaccines become available, according to a new Axios/Ipsos

published Tuesday, another potential barrier towards expanding vaccine access ahead of schools returning in fall.... [+]48% of parents surveyed in April said they are not likely to have their children vaccinated against Covid-19 when the shots first become available. The figure contrasts with growing adult acceptance of the vaccines, which has grown from around 38% in September and October to nearly 70% today.

Vaccine hesitancy remains a problem, however, and polls throughout 2021 show that one in five Americans consistently say they are unlikely to get vaccinated. The Axios poll found Republicans and those with a high school education or less to be most resistant to vaccines. Vaccinating children is going to play a major role in ending the pandemic and getting life back to normal as schools return in fall. While children and young teens don’t often get seriously sick from Covid-19, they can and do: 227 children have died from Covid-19 in the U.S.

That's 50% too many

...and that's still far too many.

Because they’re idiots.

Not that surprising, considering they are at lower risk of the disease and limited data available backing it’s safety for children.
