People keep parroting this business about blacks and hispanics, but the

data shows there was some initial distrust that has calmed and you are now seeing a big uptick in vaccination rates in those communities as people are out there educating the public and calming their fears. If you look at the polls and surveys you see a lot more "I'm going to wait and see" than I refuse to ever get vaccinated

With the Trumpanzees there is an OPPOSITE effect, where they are stubbornly taking the position that "I aint gown git no FAUWCHEE OWCHEE!!!" and outright refuse to get vaxxed, egged on by their news media and even their political leaders. Those rubes seem to be digging in on not getting vaxxed.

Anti-vaxxers outside that group are a tiny minority.

Politics aside, young people have been really disappointing throughout this whole crisis. What a generation of self-centered little pricks we have raised.
