A political science professor at Lehigh University, Anthony DiMaggio, has reported important findings regarding the correlation between age, political orientation, and views on the COVID vaccine. According to DiMaggio, refusing a vaccine has more to do with being young than being right-wing.
Based on recent data analysis, Professor DiMaggio has determined there is greater contrast between Americans over 65 and under 65 who have gotten the vaccine versus between Democrats and Republicans. This means that age likely has a greater impact on whether people get vaxxed than political viewpoints.
One of DiMaggio’s data sets was from Pew University, which reported 66% of Americans ages 18-29 had received at least one COVID vaccine since this past summer. In contrast, 86% of those over 65 had been vaxxed.
