Vaccine Mandates More Popular as Vaccinations Rise

Nathaniel Rakich: “Despite prominent voices on the right giving vaccine mandates labels such as ‘Orwellian,’ they are actually pretty popular among the American public. And where they are controversial, it’s based less on partisanship than on whether the individuals have been vaccinated themselves.”

“For example, Morning Consult found that 74 percent of already-vaccinated people supported company-mandated vaccines, while 54 percent of unvaccinated people opposed them. Interestingly, 28 percent of unvaccinated people actually supported mandatory vaccines.”
