Would you favor or oppose requiring students to receive a Covid-19 vaccine before they can attend classes in the fall? The majority of Americans would favor a vaccine requirement for college students (61 percent), high school students (56 percent), and even middle school students (51 percent), according to a Gallup survey. The great majority of Democrats favor the requirement, but few Republicans agree...
Percent in favor of a vaccine requirement for students
Total | Democrats | Republicans | |
---|---|---|---|
Middle school | 61% | 88% | 31% |
High school | 56 | 84 | 26 |
College | 51 | 77 | 22 |
"Given the highly politicized nature of public perceptions about the Covid-19 threat," concludes Gallup, "school vaccination policies are likely to spark vocal opposition and legal challenges from some parents, whatever schools decide."
