With trust in the CDC declining, doctors and physicians groups like the AMA and AAP are the most trusted sources of vaccine information among the public. About a third say they trust Secretary Kennedy, with big partisan divisions.

The survey also finds that trust in the CDC has hit a new low, with half of the public now saying they trust the agency for reliable vaccine information

Nearly all former NFL players from the '88 season are parents. Most say they encouraged their children to play tackle football if they expressed interest. Just 7% say they discouraged their children.

Even though former NFL players are divided on the risks of youth football, most say they oppose banning tackle football below the high school level. Notably, the survey found that most players think the sport is safer now than when they played.

These former NFL players - who are now in their mid-50s to mid-70s - say the game had a negative impact on their physical health but a positive impact on their life in general. Beyond that, the survey finds that nine in ten say if they could go back, they’d do it all again.

Among the now-retired NFL players who played in ’88, much larger shares of Black players compared to White players report living with physical, cognitive, and mental health issues

And adults in the U.S. are still divided on the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines nearly four years since they were first approved. Just over half express confidence in their safety, including far fewer Republicans.

mRNA technology also remains obscure to much of the public, with about half saying they don't know enough about the technology to say whether it is safe or not

Doctors and pediatricians remain trusted sources of reliable vaccine information among most adults, but other sources are polarizing. Republicans are far more likely than others to trust President Trump and Secretary Kennedy for vaccine info and are as likely to trust them as their own doctor

Meanwhile, Democrats' trust in the CDC and FDA for vaccine information has dropped by about 20 percentage points from where it stood under the Biden administration, while Republican trust has risen by about ten points -- a notable reversal of partisan trends that began during the COVID-19 pandemic

Believing or leaning toward believing false claims about measles is also tied to parents’ choices to vaccinate their children. Among parents who say at least one measles myth is definitely or probably true, a quarter say they have delayed or skipped some vaccines for their children.

Beyond the share of adults who express uncertainty, at least one in five adults believe or lean toward believing false claims about measles and measles vaccines, including at least a third of Republican parents.
