Biden now leads Trump 53% to 42%, up from an 8-point advantage at the end of June. The change comes as 71% of Americans now see the coronavirus as a real threat, up significantly over the last several months, as more than 167,000 Americans have died and more than 5 million have become infected with the virus, as of Friday. And yet, more than a third of Americans (35%) say they won't get vaccinated when a vaccine comes available; 60% say they will. There are huge splits by education and party on this. Those with college degrees are 19 points more likely to get vaccinated than those without (72% to 53%),and Democrats are 23 points more likely than Republicans (71% to 48%). --- Japanese Crack: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5pzggr <cite>Sayoria posted [p:943385717] in NPR: Over ...

Would you take it then or are you just an anti-vaxxer? I don't trust the US Government and this administration in particular.
