  Effects and Low Post-Vaccine Infection Rates
  On a separate question, while 51% of Americans report having personally been vaccinated, 19% say they are likely
  to get vaccinated but have not yet gotten the jab, while 30% say they are “not sure” or “unlikely” to get it.
  For each statement, please indicate whether you find it convincing as a reason to get vaccinated or not.

Americans Remain Largely “Pro-Mask”
Nearly seven in ten continue to say they are “pro-mask,” including almost two in three independents and nearly half of
Republicans.

There are differing opinions on whether or not people should be wearing masks right now when they are in
public, but if you had to choose, would you say that you are generally pro-mask or anti-mask?*
