While President Donald Trump suggests a coronavirus vaccine could be ready before the election, some Americans are not willing to be the first to receive it.

According to an Axios-Ipsos poll, Americans’ eagerness to try the first generation of a coronavirus vaccine has continued to decline over the past month.

Several Americans feel the risk involved with receiving the first generation of the vaccine is too high and want to see how others do with it.

Only 13% of Americans say they would want to try it immediately.

Six in 10 Americans are not willing to take the vaccine as soon as it becomes available, which is an increase from 53% in August.

Americans’ resistance to the vaccine has increased.

Now only 9% are “very likely” to get the first available vaccine, which is a significant decrease from 17% in August.

A total of 33% say they are “not likely at all” to take a first generation vaccine, which is an increase from 26%.

A few months after the vaccine becomes available, 30% said they would be willing to receive it.

While 38% believe their health insurance will cover the vaccine, 11% believe the government will provide coverage. Only 4% believe they will have to pay out of pocket.

Democrats are more likely to try the first round of the vaccine at 43% compared to 33% of Republicans.

During his press briefing on Friday, Trump told reporters he predicts there will be enough vaccine doses for every American by April of next year, as IJR previously reported.

He said at least 100 million vaccine doses will be manufactured by the end of the year and “likely much more than that.”

The number of coronavirus related deaths exceeded 200,000 in the United States on Tuesday, as IJR previously reported. The nation is losing, on a weekly average, about 800 lives each day, according to a Reuters tally.
