Do US adults believe the #COVID-19 #vaccine is important? Safe? Is the process for deciding who gets it fair? @bentleyu faculty @r_deLeo & @danielleblanch with the @RiskPolicy group answer these questions in their report https://t.co/cI6KaAR9fV
“Of the 2268 Wave 2 survey respondents, 997 (44%) reported that they had gotten a #COVID-19 #vaccine...a major increase from Wave 1 (Jan/Feb ’21) when only 158 (7%) of these respondents had been vaccinated” @RiskPolicy found in 2nd tech report, @bentleyu https://t.co/cI6KaAR9fV

“We are seeing strong evidence that even if people perceive high risk, they’re unlikely to engage in risk reduction unless they are getting messages about efficacy.” @EAKoebele on effective risk messaging https://t.co/TZUEo43K2Y
