Once hesitant about COVID-19 vaccines, some have changed their minds
(NEW YORK) Although 150 million people have received a COVID-19 vaccine, 34% of Americans are still hesitant about getting the shots and say they are not sure yet, or don’t want the vaccine, according to a recent Kaiser poll.
Despite overwhelming data supporting currently authorized vaccines all of which were found safe and highly effective in large clinical trials and in real life since FDA authorization many Americans have delayed vaccination, citing a range of reasons.
Yet, some who have been hesitant to get the vaccine are changing their minds, they told ABC News.

HAWKINSVILLE, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) Each day that volunteer Dr. Keith Green enters Newberry Foundation Heritage Center, he remembers the path paved for him.
“That’s what it stands for, to understand who I really am and to be proud of my heritage,” Green said.
Green grew up in Hawkinsville and says those who look like him weren’t always welcome.
“Up until the mid to late 70s when we had the theatre here in Pulaski County…African Americans had to go upstairs to watch the movies and the whites went downstairs,” Green recalled. “I can remember that as a kid in 1975 and 76 going to see movies.”
