Usually, the Darwin Awards are given to individuals who've improved the gene pool by removing themselves from it. Like the 37-year-old Sydney construction worker who was ten floors up on a half-framed building when he cut off the end of a beam that he was standing on.
So how are the Darwins are going to deal with the 31% of American adults who say they're going to wait a while to see if the vaccine works before they try it?
That's a whale of a lot of people who seem to think that the vaccine is going to kill you, make hair grow on your palms, or morph your face till you look like Mitch McConnell.
Never mind that COVID19 just might kill you first.
Oddly, this hesitating crowd is primarily under 50 years of age, 43% Democrats or "lean Democratic," versus 36% who are Republican or lean Republican. The study notes that a lot of Republicans think that COVID19 just isn't that big a deal.
The study came from the Kaiser Family Foundation and was released February 12.
