The American College Health Association has released our analysis of vaccine uptake and pandemic-related attitudes among college students, based on a data collected in the ongoing Axios-Ipsos COVID-19 tracking poll. Results include some concerning indications of pandemic fatigue among college students, including no reduction in disinclination to get vaccinated, no change in mitigation steps in the face of the Omicron surge and double-digit declines in trust and federal and state leadership.

Longer-term results indicate continued disparities among students by race and ethnicity in vaccine uptake. These gaps are not apparent when accounting for uptake intentions, suggesting that Black students, in particular, may face continued barriers to vaccination or a preference to wait and see.
