In November 2020, 42 percent of survey respondents in the United Kingdom reported they would be very likely to receive a COVID-19 vaccine when it becomes available, while 24 percent said they would be fairly like to take a vaccine. The highest support for receiving the vaccine was found among those aged 65 years of age, the age group most at risk from the complications arising from COVID-19, with 64 percent of over 65s reporting they would be very likely to be immunized.
