I think it depends on how the narrative about past covid evolves. Since past covid is shown to confer superior immunity against reinfection even from known strains including Delta, and since 100+ million Americans by now would've had covid, it may be the case that a significant subset of the population is of the view that they already have the relevant antibodies.

Should this change so that we find that natural immunity wears off much faster than the most effective vaccine options available, then it may prompt more people to vaccinate since they'll not want to get covid again whenever the antibodies from natural immunity wear off. But there's evidence to suggest those will last a lifetime.
