"Hesitancy held constant in the most educated group (those with a Ph.D.); by May Ph.D.’s were the most hesitant group".

"Generally, COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy was higher among the young (ages 18-24), non-Asian people and less educated (high school diploma or less) adults, and those with Ph.D.s, with a history of a positive COVID-19 test, not worried about serious illness from COVID-19 and living in regions with greater support for Donald Trump in the 2020 election."

groups, I doubt that PhDs would be the first one to focus on...given their infinitely smaller number...of all the groups studied...I suspect they'd be dead last..
The only interesting aspect of the PhD group is that they (however few in number they were) changed their attitude the least...not at all surprising to me, given their personal confidence level
Small in number, but a dime a dozen in the numismatist community.

here...
"The researchers hope that their detailed analysis, which also includes a review of reasons for hesitancy by racial group, will help policymakers identify vaccine-resistant pockets to ensure the country reaches herd immunity."
Under their 'Educational Level' metric, they happened to note that PhDs were least likely to give up their hesitancy to get vaccinated...this is not too surprising, given that they are accustomed to defending their 'hypotheses'...also under that metric was the finding that those with low levels of education (i.e. H.S. or less), there was recent evidence of a reduction in hesitancy in this relatively large group...therefore worthy of further attention and effort.
However, the essence of the report was to help make a meaningful impact toward achieving 'herd immunity' through vaccinations...worrying about PhD's is non-productive on both the numerical and effectiveness levels...it was just an interesting finding.
Does that make any sense to you?...

You are either making huge progress or failing miserably.
I had no idea what he was talking about so I was just going with it. I think I'm beginning to see why he's so protective of Joe. How many times a day do you think Biden gets mixed up like this? How many times per day do you think he unwittingly pulls others into "Who's on first?" routines. Whatever we pay the Secret Service agents, it ain't enough.

Certainly his right to do so. But it is pretty obvious who he is based on his few musings.

And he knows it. He will never reveal that.
His vanity craves attention.
His insecurity demands privacy.
I’ll put him back on Ignore to do my part.

If we had a hall of fame. What do we pay Mark for, anyway?
