Growing Share of Americans Say They Plan to Get a COVID-19 Vaccine - or Already Have: 77% Think Vaccinations Will Benefit U.S. Economy
From the Document: "More than a year after the coronavirus [hyperlink] first arrived in the United States, there are signs of growing public dissatisfaction with the country's response. Performance ratings for how top health and state and local officials have responded to the outbreak continue to decline. And there's less consensus than there was at the start of the outbreak about whether certain steps, like restrictions on restaurants, are necessary. Still, at the outset of President Joe Biden's term, there's more optimism than pessimism that the policies of his administration will improve the country's response to the outbreak. There's also a shared sense that vaccination efforts will play some role in improving the economy - a top public priority. And, as COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] vaccine production and administration efforts in the U.S. continue to ramp up, a new Pew Research Center survey finds public intent to get vaccinated is on the rise."

Americans' Trust in Scientists, Other Groups Declines: Republicans' Confidence in Medical Scientists Down Sharply Since Early in the Coronavirus Outbreak
From the Document: "Americans' confidence in groups and institutions has turned downward compared with just a year ago. Trust in scientists and medical scientists, once seemingly buoyed by their central role in addressing the coronavirus outbreak, is now below pre-pandemic levels. [...] Overall, 29% of U.S. adults say they have a great deal of confidence in medical scientists to act in the best interests of the public, down from 40% who said this in November 2020. Similarly, the share with a great deal of confidence in scientists to act in the public's best interests is down by 10 percentage points (from 39% to 29%), according to a new Pew Research Center survey. The new findings represent a shift in the recent trajectory of attitudes toward medical scientists and scientists. Public confidence in both groups had increased shortly after the start of the coronavirus outbreak, according to an April 2020 survey [hyperlink]. Current ratings of medical scientists and scientists have now fallen below where they were in January 2019, before the emergence of the coronavirus."
