Republicans are twice as likely as Democrats to report knowing someone who left their job due to a vaccine mandate, with almost a quarter of all adults saying they know someone who’s quit.

A quarter of workers reported their employers instituted a COVID-19 vaccine mandate — an increase of 16 percentage points since June.

About a fifth of respondents said they want a workplace vaccine requirement, while about half said they do not want a mandate, including majorities of Republicans and unvaccinated workers.
