Republicans and Democrats switch sides on religion vs. science Mistrust of the scientific community is affecting the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.

White Evangelical Resistance Is Obstacle in Vaccination Effort Elizabeth Dias and Ruth Graham © Dustin Chambers/Bloomberg Demonstrators hold signs during a protest outside the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention headquarters in Atlanta last month. Stephanie Nana, an evangelical Christian in Edmond, Okla., refused to get a Covid-19 vaccine because she believed it contained “aborted cell tissue.” Nathan French, who leads a nondenominational ministry in Tacoma, Wash., said he received a divine message that God was the ultimate healer and deliverer: “The vaccine is not the savior.” Lauri Armstrong, a Bible-believing nutritionist outside of Dallas, said she did not need the vaccine because God designed the body to heal itself, if given the right nutrients. More than that, she said, “It would be God’s will if I am here or if I am not here.”
