Part 2 Consider the numbers: More than 157 million Americans have been vaccinated as of July 6. That’s a population orders of magnitude bigger than the typical clinical trial population for vaccines. And, as CNN shared, only 5,186 cases of hospitalization or death due to COVID-19 have been reported to the CDC for those who were vaccinated.
What makes someone change their mind about COVID-19 vaccination?
According to polling data, the vast majority (92%) of those who said at the beginning of 2021 that they intended to get a COVID-19 vaccine had received one six months later. So have 54% of those who said they wanted to wait and see. Perhaps most interesting, among those who said they would plan on waiting to get the shot, would get it only if it was required, or definitely would not get it, 21% now report being vaccinated. So what made them change their minds?
Top reasons they gave include:
Friends and family persuaded them. They saw family and friends vaccinated without significant side effects. Their personal doctors convinced them. They wanted to participate in eased restrictions for vaccinated people. They wanted to protect other family members or friends. Vaccines still available
Getting your COVID-19 vaccine is the best thing you can do to protect yourself, your family and your colleagues and to ensure that our industry stays on track to recover and thrive. We are seeing an increase in cases of COVID-19 in the United States fueled by the delta variant, especially in places where vaccination rates are low. The vast majority of those who are winding up in the hospital and dying were not vaccinated against COVID-19. It is absolutely critical for you to get vaccinated to help end this pandemic. Stay safe by getting the COVID-19 shot. If you need help finding a vaccine, check out Flying Together’s COVID-19 site or www.cdc.gov for more information.
COVID-19 vaccines remain available for a limited time at our Premise clinics at IAH and EWR. If you or your family have not yet been vaccinated, you are still able to get your shot through United. We will cease giving out the vaccine in IAH at the end of July and in EWR at the end of August.
