Pro-vaccine, Pro-freedom Message Could Restore Public Trust
Americans’ trust in vaccines is at a historic low. Only about 40 percent of people now consider childhood vaccines “extremely important,” down from 64 percent in 2001.
Support for routine childhood shots has especially eroded among conservatives—largely due to the Biden administration’s disastrous, heavy-handed COVID vaccine mandates that infringed on Americans’ freedoms and violated their privacy.
