Only 25% of Americans believe: Trump administration’s vaccine policy-based-reports-reports

Recently released Reuters/IPSOS polls revealed that only 25% of the American public believes that the Kovid-19 vaccine policy of former President Donald Trump’s administration was fully science-based. This figure has raised new questions on the government strategy of dealing with epidemic in America and the trust of the public.

The main conclusion of the pole

People involved in this poll were asked whether they feel that the vaccine policies of the Trump administration were based on scientific evidence and suggestions from experts. Only 25% replied in “yes”, while about 50% said “no”. The rest of the 25% did not give a clear opinion or said “not sure”.

Experts say that this figure is an indication that political pressure in policy making during the epidemic and the incompatibility of messages weakened public confidence.

Public concerns

Americans many times expressed that their information in the vaccine rollout and its promotion did not seem based on real scientific data. Many people involved in the poll also believe that the administration gave more importance to political and economic priorities in taking decisions.

Experts say that when health policies are not based on the public’s trust and scientific evidence, the tilt towards vaccination and other public health programs in people decreases.

Opinion of health experts

The American Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) repeatedly emphasized scientifically certified measures. At the same time, the message was found inconsistent several times in the vaccine strategies of Trump administration. This created a situation of confusion and doubt in the public.

Health experts believe that the results of the pole show how important it is to follow scientific guidance and give a clear message.
