Now that the Johnson & Johnson vaccine is heading to Georgia and other states, will it reduce the number of people who are hesitant about getting a COVID-19 shot?
A recent Kaiser Family Foundation survey suggests that J&J’s new single-dose vaccine will make a difference in public attitudes. The two vaccines that have been in use in this country up to now are administered in two shots, spaced weeks apart.
In the survey, about a quarter of respondents in the “wait and see’’ category (waiting to see how vaccines work on others) said they would be more likely to get immunized if only one dose was required.
