Coronavirus vaccine hesitancy falling across the regions and countries of Great Britain

Adults from all English regions, Scotland and Wales became less likely to report coronavirus vaccine hesitancy during the first half of 2021. 

The sharpest decline in hesitancy was in Wales (where the rate decreased from 9% in January to March to 4% in April to July 2021), followed by London (11% to 7%), Yorkshire and The Humber (8% to 4%) and the North East (7% to 3%).
