Say what you will about the wordmeister who created misleading policy titles such as "Clear Skies" and "Healthy Forests" for Dubya - He's not stupid.
The good news, according to Luntz, is that these Americans trust their doctors and can be convinced with a positive message about the benefits and safety of the vaccines, not the risks of skipping it.
“The most impactful message is how the vaccine will reduce the government’s restrictions on our lives and our freedoms," Luntz wrote in a polling memo. "Without widespread vaccination, mask mandates and personal lockdowns will continue.”
Prevention and protection were also effective messages, Luntz found, such as comparing the vaccine to wearing a seat belt and telling people it could prevent tens of thousands of deaths. To assuage concerns about safety, he suggested reminding people that nearly every doctor has chosen to take it.

New research sheds light on how to reach Trump fans, who are one of the largest groups of vaccine skeptics in America.
