Living in Boston During COVID-19: Report Assesses Vaccination Hesitation

Bostonians’ Interest in Receiving Vaccine Lower in Communities of Color, Among Women A newly released National Science Foundation-funded report by UMass Boston researchers finds that 1 in 5 Bostonians plan to not get vaccinated, nearly half of Black Bostonians say they have little or no interest in receiving the COVID-19 vaccine when it becomes available, and more than a quarter of Hispanics say the same. A quarter of women also say they will not get the vaccine. These findings are among those included in Living in Boston During COVID-19: Vaccination Hesitation, the fifth report in a research project that is a collaboration among the Boston Area Research Initiative (BARI) at Northeastern University, UMass Boston, and the Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC). UMass Boston Interim Director for the Center for Survey Research Lee Hargraves and Sociology Professor Russell Schutt served as lead authors of the report.

But fewer than 75 percent of Latino respondents said they would get
