Poll: Number of Americans willing to get COVID-19 vaccine falls to new low amid fears Trump is putting politics before safety

https://news.yahoo.com/poll-number-of-americans-willing-to-get-a-vaccination-falls-as-fears-mount-that-trump-is-putting-politics-before-safety-203727770.html

In early May, most Americans (55 percent) said they would get vaccinated for COVID-19 if and when a vaccine becomes available. 

Now, four months later, less than a third of Americans (32 percent) say they plan to get vaccinated, according to the latest Yahoo News/YouGov poll — a stunning 23-point decline that reflects rising concern about the politicization of the vaccine process and underscores how challenging it will be to stop the pandemic through vaccination alone.
