It's possible that the intersection of white people and Republicans is the least likely group to get vaccinated, according to some survey. Even if that were true, it's still a cheap shot from NPR, since the group you'd want to reference in that context would be whoever the largest anti-vax group is, not the ones who are least likely to change their minds. And in any case, the link they cite as support doesn't actually support the statement: it's about rural whites not getting vaccinated, and mentions Republicans (and Evangelicals) only speculatively and in passing. It might be that NPR sees all these groups as equivalent, and uses one as a shorthand for the other without the need for explanation or comment, which of course they are not.
