As the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine continues in the U.S., a new study shows that nearly one out of two construction workers will not get vaccinated.
A study from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh surveyed adults ages 18 to 64 asking whether they would get vaccinated if offered the vaccine. Nearly half (46.4%) of those who identified as being in the construction, oil and gas extraction or mining industries answered they “probably” or “definitely” would not choose to receive the vaccine.
