Poll: 1 in 4 Americans Know Someone Who Died From COVID Vaccine

The Epoch Times Header

Several recent polls suggest that Americans are increasingly wary of COVID-19 vaccines.

A new poll found that about a quarter of Americans believe someone they knew died from COVID-19 vaccines, while another recent survey found that a growing number of Americans are increasingly wary of the shots.

In a poll from Rasmussen Reports, it found that about about a quarter of Americans, or 24 percent, “believe someone they know died from COVID-19 vaccine side effects,” said the pollster on Nov. 2. About 69 percent said they do not know anyone who died from the vaccine.

About half of Americans, or 47 percent, said that they know someone who died from the COVID-19 virus, while 49 percent said they don’t know anyone who died from the illness, according to Rasmussen.

It added that “among those who say someone they know died from the COVID-19 virus, 41 percent also say they know someone who died from side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine.”

“By contrast, among those who say they donโ€™t know anyone who died from the virus, only nine percent (9 percent) say they know someone who died from COVID-19 vaccine side effects,” Rasmussen said.

The pollster noted there were no differences in politics in the questions. Some 25 percent of Republican voters said they know someone who died from alleged vaccine side-effects, while 24 percent Democrats and unaffiliated voters said the same. Government employees who were polled were “more than twice as likely as private sectors workers” to tell the pollster that they know someone who personally died from the side effects.

About 42 percent said that if there was a significant class-action lawsuit against pharmaceutical firms for side effects related to vaccines, they would “likely” join the suit, according to the poll, which noted that 24 percent said it would be “very likely” they would join. Forty-seven percent of respondents said they would not join the lawsuit, and 11 percent said they aren’t sure.
