The exception comes from the roughly three-in-ten U.S. adults (29%) who say they would definitely be vaccinated; 82% of this group say they would be comfortable being in the first groups to be immunized against coronavirus.
Regardless of people’s intention to get vaccinated, 62% of Americans report they would be uncomfortable being among the first to do so.
Roughly two-thirds of those who say they would “probably” be vaccinated are uncomfortable being among the first as are nearly all of those who say they would not be vaccinated if a vaccine were available today.
The public continued to focus most closely last week on the economy as new jobless numbers and other data reaffirmed the slow pace of the recovery.
About a quarter (26%) say this was the story they followed most closely; 36% say they followed news about the economy very closely.
The media devoted 25% of coverage to the campaigns.
That made the elections the most covered story of the week as has been the case for the past four weeks.
Nearly a quarter (23%) say they followed news about the upcoming midterm congressional elections very closely; 15% say this was the news they followed most closely.
About two-in-ten (19%) say they very closely followed news about problems with how banks and other financial institutions have been handling foreclosures; 6% say this was the news they followed most closely.
In terms of coverage, the nation’s economic troubles accounted for 11% of the newshole last week.
That included 9% for economic news in general and 2% for news focused on the foreclosure problems, according to the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism.
In a 2014 Pew Research Center survey, respondents were asked, “Regardless of whether or not you think these skills are good to have, which ones do you think are most important for children to get ahead in the world today?” Roughly eight-in-ten U.S. adults (79%) said math is one of the most important skills needed for youth to get ahead.
That placed math on par with teamwork, but slightly lower than communication and reading.
Americans rank math as one of the most important skills children need today to get ahead.
Mexican unauthorized immigrant adults are more likely to be long-term residents of the U.S. As of 2017, 83% had lived in the U.S. for more than 10 years, while only 8% had been in the country for five years or less.
By comparison, 51% of unauthorized immigrant adults from countries other than Mexico had lived in the U.S. a decade or more as of 2017, while 30% had lived in the U.S. for five years or less.
Between paid and unpaid work, the average mother works about 2 more hours a week than she did in 1965, though the mix of time spent on paid work, housework and child care has changed dramatically:
THERE WAS AN UPWARD TREND OF PEOPLE TRAVELING WITH TAP PORTUGAL IN THE LAST 19 YEARS.
the number of passengers travelling each year has increased steadily until 2015 onwards where there was a steep increase.
The Steelers and the Patriots have the most wins with 6 each.
The Giants and the Packers both have 4 wins.
The Cowboys and the 49ers both have 5 wins.
Each of these win markers is shared showing no clear dominant team over the period.
7 of the 20 teams shown have only 1 win, showing that this is the most common number of wins and indicating it is the easiest marker to achieve.
Asian Americans also lean Democratic by a wide margin (65%-23%).
The Democrats hold an 80%-11% advantage among blacks, and lead by more than two-to-one among Hispanics (56%-26%).
Back to top
Republicans hold a 49%-40% lead over the Democrats in leaned party identification among whites.
This data for Asian Americans is based on interviews conducted in English.
Across a range of measures, Republicans are far more negative than Democrats in their assessments of the news media.
Democrats and Democratic leaners were far more positive than Republicans on all of these questions.
The partisan divide in views of the news media extends to views of specific outlets, too, as a separate Center study found in January.
In a February survey, more than half of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said news organizations don’t care about the people they report on (69%), are not professional (60%), are too critical of America (58%), hurt democracy (56%) and don’t care about how good of a job they do (54%).
Nearly two-thirds (64%) of those who plan to vote for the Democratic candidate in their district think of their vote this fall as a vote against George W. Bush.
The higher level of enthusiasm among Democratic voters is linked to two underlying attitudes: anger at the president and optimism about Democrats chances in the fall.
Overall, 47% of voters who plan to vote Democratic this fall say they are more enthusiastic about voting than usual, compared with just 30% of voters who plan to vote Republican.
The partisan gap in enthusiasm is even visible among independents – those who lean Democratic are considerably more eager to vote than those who lean Republican.
More than half (55%) of Democratic voters who expect the party to make progress in the fall say they are more enthusiastic about voting this year, compared with just 34% who see the party doing about the same – or worse – as in recent elections.
These anti-Bush voters are significantly more motivated to vote – 52% say they are more eager to vote this year than usual, compared with 39% among those who say Bush is not a factor in their vote.
The heightened Democratic enthusiasm is particularly notable among liberal Democrats, 53% of whom are more interested in voting this year than usual.
The heightened expectations among Democrats are strongly linked with increased interest in voting.
Democratic voters also have an optimistic outlook for the fall – 64% think the party will do better in this year’s congressional elections than it has in other recent elections.
Between the years 2007/08 and 2009/10 the average price remained static.
The biggest decrease in average price was between the years 2014/15 and 2015/16 which equates to approximately 8 dollars whereas the biggest decrease before these two periods was an average of 1 or 2 dollars.
Unusually the average ticket price has decressed between 2006/07 and 2015/16.
On the issue of marijuana policy, more continue to say marijuana use should be legal (52%) than illegal (45%), and public views about marijuana are little changed over the last year.
Four-in-ten Americans followed news about the fires very closely, making it the fourth most closely followed news story of the year.
The California wildfires overshadowed all other news stories last week both in terms of public interest and news coverage.
Nearly half of the public (46%) listed the California fires as the single news story they followed more closely than any other last week.
Only the Virginia Tech shootings surpassed the fires in terms of overall news coverage.
The fires were covered more intensely on television news outlets than on other sectors — 53% of network TV news and 51% of cable news was devoted to the story.
The only stories that have attracted a larger audience this year were rising gas prices in May, the Virginia Tech shootings in April, and the Minnesota bridge collapse in August.
Comprising 38% of the national newshole, the wildfires became the second most heavily covered news story of 2007.
At the same time, the Dominican foreign-born population living in the U.S. grew by 106%, from 543,800 in 2000 to 1.1 million in 2017.
Dominicans are the fifth-largest population of Hispanic origin living in the United States, accounting for 4% of the U.S. Hispanic population in 2017.
Since 2000, the Dominican-origin population has increased 159%, growing from 797,000 to 2.1 million over the period.
Dominicans in this statistical profile are people who self-identified as Hispanics of Dominican origin; this includes immigrants from Dominican Republic and those who trace their family ancestry to Dominican Republic.
By comparison, Mexicans, the nation’s largest Hispanic origin group, constituted 36.6 million, or 62%, of the Hispanic population in 2017.
An estimated 2.1 million Hispanics of Dominican origin lived in the United States in 2017, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.
From 2004 to 2018 (the chart goes up to 2018, not 2016) there is an increase in the amount of obese women in the UK.
This shows an increase in obese women has occurred, starting at 0.24 in 2004 rising to 0.29 in 2018, hitting a high at 0.30 in 2017.
From 2008 to 2013 the average amount of people was around the same but from 2013 the trend went up sharply.
There are a few dips here and there but the trend is upwards.
Conversely, in Turkey and Mexico, low confidence in the U.S. president aligns with less positive views of the U.S.
For example, the two countries with the most confidence in Trump – Israel and the Philippines – are also among the most favorable toward the country he leads.
Generally speaking, those with more trust in the U.S. president to do what is right in foreign affairs tend to view the U.S. more positively.
However, in almost every country surveyed, views toward the U.S. surpass confidence in the U.S. president, sometimes by wide margins.
Views of the U.S. president are closely linked with attitudes toward the U.S. itself.
The rate has either decreased or remained roughly the same over the entire period.
It has not increased at any point.
In 1930 the infant mortality rate was 60 deaths per 1,000 live births.
Over the last 20 years, the rate has continued to reduce but much less than previously.
The rate has gone from around 60 deaths per 1,000 live births in 1935 to around 6 in 2020.
There was a significant reduction in the rate between 1935 and around 1955.
Overall, the infant mortality rate (under one year old) in the US from 1935 to 2020 has decreased.
Any measures that were put in place to reduce the rate have therefore been effective.
This has steadily decreased over the subsequent 80 years and levelling at approximately 6 deaths per 1,00 live births in 2010.
The year with the lowest offences was 2013/14, with just over 600 offences.
There has been an overall trend of decreasing homicide numbers over the time period, from a high in 02/03 to the most recent 19/20.
Since this lowest point there has been an increasing trend, although not to the same extent as 2002/03.
The lowest point was around 2013/14.
The year with the highest homicide offences was 2002/03, with 1,200 offences.
From 2008/09 until 2019/20, the number of offences has been a steady amount, only slightly increasing and decreasing per year.
This is a group that can include family members of U.S. citizens and awardees of the diversity immigrant visa program.
In all, 130,480 people entered the U.S. between 2006 and 2015 as new lawful permanent residents from these six nations, with nearly half (53%) from Iran.
The annual total jumped for these six countries, to 26,842 in fiscal 2016, a year when 12,587 refugees were admitted from Syria alone.
The annual number of new lawful permanent residents entering from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen also increased between fiscal years 2006 and 2015, from 11,392 to 14,397 arrivals.
Over the period in question, the number of temporary visa entries from the six countries nearly tripled: from about 22,000 in 2006 to nearly 65,000 in 2015.
Those on temporary visas were mostly visitors to the U.S., but could also include students, businesspeople, short-term workers and diplomats, according to an analysis of Department of Homeland Security data.
Over the same period, annual refugee admissions from these six countries fluctuated, but about the same number entered in fiscal 2006 (15,035) as in 2015 (15,243), according to U.S. State Department data.
In all, 110,003 refugees from these six countries were admitted between fiscal years 2006 and 2015, representing nearly two-in-ten (18%) of all refugee admissions during the period.
Nearly two-thirds (409,449) of the total legal U.S. entries from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen between fiscal 2006 and 2015 were admitted using temporary non-immigrant visas.
(Temporary immigrants represent events and not unique individuals; individuals may have entered the U.S. multiple times during a fiscal year.)
A similar education pattern exists for opinions of medical researchers.
Americans with a bachelor’s or postgraduate degree (both 81%) are more likely than adults who attended some college (73%) or who have a high school diploma or less (63%) to have positive overall opinions of medical doctors.
White adults (75%) are more likely than black adults (61%) to have a positive view of medical doctors.
Black Americans also stand out for their lower ratings of medical research scientists: About half (53%) have a positive view, compared with majorities of white (68%) and Hispanic (67%) adults.
For example, 47% of Spaniards say GM foods are unsafe, while just 13% say they are safe to eat.
Majorities in places such as Russia (70%), Italy (62%), India (58%) and South Korea (57%) view GM foods as generally unsafe to eat.
The survey included an option for people with limited familiarity about GM foods to indicate this; a median of 37% say they don’t know enough to offer a view about the safety of GM foods.
The balance of opinion tilts negative even in places where sizable shares say they don’t know enough about GM foods to offer a view.
A 20-public median of 48% say genetically modified, or GM, foods are unsafe to eat, while a much smaller median of 13% say GM foods are safe.
Australia is the only place surveyed where at least as many view GM foods as safe as view them to be unsafe (31% to 31%).
Fully half of Spanish (52%) and German respondents (50%) rate Muslims unfavorably.
Opinions about Muslims in almost all of these countries are considerably more negative than are views of Jews.
Opinions about Muslims are somewhat less negative in Poland (46%) and considerably less negative in France (38%).
Overall, there is a clear relationship between anti-Jewish and anti-Muslim attitudes: publics that view Jews unfavorably also tend to see Muslims in a negative light.
About one-in-four in Britain and the United States (23% each) also voice unfavorable views of Muslims.
The personal income in Nevada increased during the years.
This shows a income rise of 18,000 dollars in 19 years.
The lowest was in 2000, with just above 30.000 dollars.
Over the years up to 2019 it had gradually risen to 50,000 dollars.
The Bar chart shows that from the year 2000 the personal income in Nevada was around 32,000 dollars and gradually it had risen, and in 2007 it topped slightly above 40,000 dollars and then dropped a little in 2009 to around 37,000 dollars.
The highest was in 2019, with just above 50.000 dollars.
(The U.S. is near the low end of the scale with a 2.5 rating.)
The countries where people are most likely to say bribes are important are China (with a 5.5 average rating on the 10-point scale), Jordan (5.0) and Russia (4.5); and those least likely to do so are Brazil (0.8), El Salvador (1.4) and Colombia (1.5).
1 40% of internet users have personally experienced online harassment.
We defined online harassment as having had at least one of six incidents personally occur to someone: name-calling, efforts to be purposefully embarrassed, physical threats, harassment over a sustained period of time, sexual harassment, and stalking.
Another 18% of internet users experienced any of the “more severe” types of harassment, including physical threats, sustained harassment, stalking, and sexual harassment.
Online harassment fell into two distinct, but frequently overlapping, categories of severity – “less severe” harassment was composed of name-calling and embarrassment; 22% of internet users exclusively experienced this kind of harassment.
(Respondents were separately asked if they had witnessed any of these behaviors occur to others online; 73% said they had).
A much smaller majority of McCain backers (56%) say they support him strongly, which is largely unchanged from mid-September.
Currently, 74% of Obama voters say they support him strongly, up from 65% in mid-September.
While Obama’s support levels have not increased much in recent weeks, a growing percentage of his backers now say they support him strongly.
Democrats who oppose a path to legal status (16% of all Democrats and Democratic leaners) are more critical of their party: Just 30% say the party does a good job of reflecting their views, while 70% say it does not.
Among this group, 55% say the party is doing a good job representing their views on this issue; 38% say it is not.

Though a majority of people in Pakistan are still unhappy with the country’s direction, satisfaction is on the rise.
Men are slightly more likely to express satisfaction (29%) than women (20%).
Pakistanis are more satisfied with the direction of their country than they have been in six years.
Among Hispanics, naturalized-citizen turnout was 53.4%, higher than the 45.5% turnout for U.S.-born Hispanics.
But among Asians and Hispanics – the nation’s two largest immigrant groups – the pattern was reversed.
Asians continue to represent a smaller share of voters than Hispanics: Overall, about 5 million Asians voted in 2016, up from 3.8 million in 2012.
A number of long-standing trends in presidential elections either reversed or stalled in 2016, as black voter turnout decreased, white turnout increased and the nonwhite share of the U.S. electorate remained flat since the 2012 election.
The black voter turnout rate declined for the first time in 20 years in a presidential election, falling to 59.6% in 2016 after reaching a record-high 66.6% in 2012.
The number of black voters also declined, falling by about 765,000 to 16.4 million in 2016, representing a sharp reversal from 2012.
In 2016, turnout among Asian naturalized citizens was 51.9%, compared with 44.9% for U.S.-born Asians.
In a year when immigration played a central role in the presidential campaign, turnout among naturalized-citizen voters (those who were immigrants born in another country who have naturalized to become U.S. citizens) was 54.3%, up from 53.6% in 2012.
The 7-percentage-point decline from the previous presidential election is the largest on record for blacks.
Even so, the number of Latino nonvoters – those eligible to vote who do not cast a ballot, or 14 million in 2016 – was larger than the number of Latino voters, a trend that extends back to each presidential election since 1996.
Due largely to demographic growth, the number of Latino voters grew to a record 12.7 million in 2016, up from 11.2 million in 2012.
(It’s also the largest percentage-point decline among any racial or ethnic group since white voter turnout dropped from 70.2% in 1992 to 60.7% in 1996.)
The number of naturalized-citizen voters reached 10.8 million in 2016, up from 9.3 million in 2012.

Overall turnout remained flat despite expectations heading into Election Day of a long-awaited, historic surge in Latino voters.
Overall, the voter turnout rate among foreign-born citizens trailed that of U.S.-born voters, who had a 62.1% turnout rate in 2016.
Meanwhile, the Asian voter turnout rate increased to 49.3% in 2016, up from 46.9% in 2012 and surpassing Hispanics for the first time since 1996.
Here are some key takeaways from the Census Bureau’s report, the data source with the most comprehensive demographic and statistical portrait of U.S. voters.
The Latino voter turnout rate held steady at 47.6% in 2016, compared with 48.0% in 2012.
With Barack Obama on the ballot that year, the black voter turnout rate surpassed that of whites for the first time.
Older generations are progressively more conservative.
Overall, Millennials (currently ages 18-33) are the most liberal age group.
This survey of more than 10,000 Americans finds that, on this scale, Millennials are considerably more liberal than other generations: About four-in-ten Millennials are mostly (28%) or consistently (13%) liberal in their views, compared with 15% who are mostly (12%) or consistently (3%) conservative (44% are ideologically mixed).
In our report on Political Polarization in the American Public, we used a scale based on 10 political values questions about the role of government, the environment, homosexuality and other issues to measure ideological consistency.
