Last week Carnegie-Mellon University published a nationwide study on people who have not been vaccinated. They broke it down by various demographics such as race, income, political affiliation and level of education obtained. When it came to education the second biggest cohort (percentage-wise) of unvaccinated were people with a high school diploma or less. The cohort with the highest percentage of non-vaccination was people with PHDs. I have no idea what that means but I thought it was interesting.

Simple
The HS diploma folks still have common sense and have learned to be cynical via the school of hard knocks and the phds know the science doesn’t add up
Everyone in between just comply, that’s why many went on to college anyway. “Everyone must go to college”. Why? “Because I said so”

Hmm.
Here's my thought.
High School Graduate 1989 [emoji56]
The High School Graduate ain't smart enough to "trust" the Government & the PhD is too smart to "trust" the government...
When we go to God by prayer, the devil knows we go to fetch strength against him, and therefore he opposeth us all he can.

Does it matter which brand of PHD it is?
Can you spell it?

I find this interesting:
Those from counties with higher Trump support in the 2020 presidential election
showed higher hesitancy, and the difference in hesitancy between areas with high
and low Trump support grew over the period studied. “This finding really highlights
the politicization of public health recommendations,” said King.
“What's concerning is there is a subset of the population that's got strong levels of
hesitancy, as in refusal to take the vaccine, not potential concern about it, and the
size of that group isn’t changing,” said Mejia.
Among the most recalcitrant, commonly cited reasons included not trusting the
vaccine and not trusting the government, while less hesitant groups were more
inclined to explain they were waiting to see if the vaccine is safe. The researchers
believe that different approaches are necessary to address these concerns.
“In all the other levels of vaccine intent we saw change over time. The lack of
change in prevalence of the ‘definitely not’ group implies those with strong feelings
about the vaccine are not likely to change easily,” said King. “Thinking about how to
reach that group and having messaging and incentives that that group will respond
to is important.”
