More than one in four of vaccinated American adults who have friends or family members who are unvaccinated say in the latest Economist/YouGov poll that they have stopped associating with at least one of these friends or family members because they are not vaccinated. Democrats are twice as likely as Republicans to say they have done this, among people who are vaccinated and have unvaccinated close friends or family members.

Far fewer unvaccinated adults who have friends or family members who have been vaccinated have stopped associating with at least one of them (8%) – with men (14%) far more likely than women (2%) to have done this.

Even more striking is the way vaccinated Americans view people who are unvaccinated. More than a third of American adults say they “cannot understand their decision to not get vaccinated.” That includes 53% of people who are now fully vaccinated, but just 13% among the rest of the population.
