Abstract
We studied negative COVID-19 vaccine attitudes in 226 individuals who identified as vaccine skeptics. A correlation between mRNA concerns and negative vaccine attitudes was found (p > .001). However, higher levels of education were associated with an increased association between mRNA concerns and negative vaccine attitudes (p = .02).
