45 needs to step up and tell his "people" to get the vaccine. Shit, he got the damn thing, and he had the Wuhan Flu.

I agree, but he is who he is.

apparently 46 and the rest of the "leaders" aren't much better

I keep seeing headlines showing folks are afraid or just not planning to get vaccinated..............

It's also apparent to me that the folks against the vaccine are less educated overall.

Why isn't there a national or state by state effort to educate folks about the vaccines?  benefits and detriments

again, no concise clear message from leaders.  not the CDC, not the White House, not Governors, no one.
Funny I’m seeing and hearing the exact opposite on both counts. I haven’t really read or seen much about people being against the vaccines but I keep hearing that they are the problem and that Biden and Company are going to do an all out front on educating people why they need the vaccine. For example they already enlisted George Bush Junior and I already heard him on the radio.

Today I heard that California’s governor is blaming his recall problems on “the anti-VAX people”.    Yeah those six people in California are really hurting him LOL.

Yeah, I don't get it. He and FLOTUS got it in secret and it didn't come out until ~2 weeks ago. 

He has no trouble taking all the credit for the vaccine--that he's not endorsing people to actually get.

this was a story recently.................

https://www.sacbee.com/news/article249943718.html


A Florida correctional officer polled his colleagues earlier this year in a private Facebook group: “Will you take the COVID-19 vaccine if offered?”

The answer from more than half: “Hell no.” Only 40 of the 475 respondents said yes.

In Massachusetts, more than half the people employed by the Department of Correction declined to be immunized. A statewide survey in California showed that half of all correction employees will wait to be vaccinated. In Rhode Island, prison staff have refused the vaccine at higher rates than the incarcerated, according to medical director Dr. Justin Berk. And in Iowa, early polling among employees showed a little more than half the staff said they’d get vaccinated.

Biden, Fauci appear at odds over calling on Trump to urge supporters get vaccinated

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/biden-fauci-odds-calling-trump-urge-supporters-vaccinated/story?id=76471342

President Joe Biden appeared to be at odds with his top scientist in the pandemic fight, Dr. Anthony Fauci, about whether former president Donald Trump should urge his supporters to get vaccinated, given a poll that shows they are the Americans most likely not to get the shots.

"Should President Trump help promote the vaccine amongst skeptics, sir? Especially those Republicans who say that they’re not willing ... ," a reporter at the White House asked at the end of an event Monday.

"I'm hearing a lot of reports from serious reporters like you saying that. I discussed it with my team, and they say the thing that has more impact than anything Trump would say to the MAGA folks, is what the local doctors, what the local preachers, what the local people in the community say," Biden responded. "So, I urge all local [doctors] and ministers and priests to talk about why it's important to get that vaccine, and even after that, until everyone is, in fact, vaccinated to wear this mask."

I file this whole category under the umbrella of:

Let’s blame it on the “maga” crowd. 

Lol. Blame what?  Your made up problem?  Who were the ones very loudly and publicly pooh-poohing the idea of a vaccine back in the fall? Who created that doubt? We all know the answer.   

Vaccinate every single human being that wants to be vaccinated and those who don’t will eventually come around and stoo making it a bigger deal than it really is for chrissake

I know folks bragging about the vaccine as a triumph before the election now claiming it is dangerous.

And vice versa.

Confirmation bias at work.

I don't know if it's a blame anyone thing.  There are polls out there showing various groups and how likely they are to take the vaccine, and white Republicans were way out ahead as far as not taking it.

Folks?   If true I agree.  I just haven’t seen or heard of an example of that in the high level political world as was the case on the flip side.  Presidential candidates, (now Prez and VP)speaker, etc, openly criticizing the vaccine, saying it would take years and literally saying it can’t be trusted.  That happened.  You can’t simply undo that or pretend it didn’t.  It did.

I haven’t seen such polls but I’ll take your word for it.   If true though you’re almost can’t blame them given the unbelievable mixed messages they’ve been getting about this whole thing including Fauci CDC the mainstream media and the politicians.   
Also, as time goes by and the effectiveness becomes even more clear statistically those people will come on board.

Interesting read here. It's no wonder they have doubts, given what was said by the current administration last Fall.

Point me to the polls you are referring to please.
