Now, it’s a fact. A new Pew Research Center survey shows that the godless are more likely to get vaccinated for COVID-19 compared to religious groups — as 90% of atheist respondents said that they will “definitely” or “probably” seek the shot, or have already received their first vaccine dose.
Meanwhile, an average of 77% of Catholics will go in for the jab, and only 62% of Protestant participants — including white or Hispanic evangelicals and worshippers at historically black churches — will do the same.
By contrast, nearly half — 45% — of white evangelicals say they “definitely” or “probably will not” seek the coronavirus vaccine, regardless of the manufacturer. And they appear split down the middle as 54% affirmed that they likely will get the shot.
