Vaccine Acceptance and Mask Wearing Rises Slightly

Our latest survey results reveal the largest percentage of Americans are willing to get vaccinated, since November 2020. We found that 72% of respondents would be willing to get the vaccine – this marks a 10% increase since the beginning of the year.


Additionally, we observed an increase among respondents regularly wearing a face mask in public. Our latest results show that 67% of respondents consistently wear a mask in public – a 22% increase since the lowest point in August, when only 45% of respondents regularly wore a mask.


In the most recent survey, we continue to observe a political divide regarding vaccination acceptance, with a 50% gap between Democrats and Republicans, with an average 40% gap among all parties since the beginning of 2021.
