I think intelligence is part of it but there is more to it. What the more is probably varies. Some of the smartest people I know were first in line to take it. The ability to care enough to question what is going on around you, how naïve you are and how trusting you are of the government and world leaders. Peer pressure is also a HUGE factor no matter what age you are. If not for me bringing my wife back to reality several times her friends would have gotten her to cave in to the vax months ago. No matter how many times I explain that the mainstream news media has an agenda, those headlines still grab here and weaken her resolve at times. This will get worse, the peer pressure in the coming weeks. They are applying pressure very hard now. I think its because the cat is wiggling out of the bag and very soon even the propaganda will not work in making folks believe only the unvaxed are in the hospital with covid.
In my honest opinion, it has got nothing to do with being educated...Being Educated does not equate to being intelligent...Common sense and Logic are the key...
