Out of interest I went to their source. It is a Tennessee study of unvaccinated individuals and The primary distinction between conservative white and black/hispanic people is that the former are primarily in the "unwilling" category while the latter are in the "willing but not yet ready/waiting for an appointment".
I will say that the study is way too small and not rigorous enough to use as a source for that information.
Interestingly KFF's numbers and polling tell very different stories, so I wonder if kff has bad/outdated/unrepresentative data or if pretty much every demographic has a subset that is lying about their vaccination status: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/meet-the-press/nbc-news-poll-shows-demographic-breakdown-vaccinated-u-s-n1277514 https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/meet-the-press/nbc-news-pol...
In that poll, white people are lower than both black and hispanic people, and the biggest predictors for low vaccination are rural, republican, and trump support. It's possible that those groups are more likely to tell the truth about vaccine hesitancy?
