Twelve percent of Jewish Americans are also the least likely to look to religious leaders for information on vaccines, tied for the least likely of religious groups surveyed

WASHINGTON – Jewish Americans are the most likely religious group to accept the COVID-19 vaccine, according to a poll by the Public Religion Research Institute and Interfaith Youth Core.

The poll, conducted in June 2021, found that 85 percent of Jewish Americans are likely to be vaccine acceptors. However, while all other religious groups surveyed saw at least a 10-point growth in likelihood of acceptance rates since March, the rate among Jews has generally stayed the same.
