Hypothesis
Antipathy towards the unvaccinated by the vaccinated is only high among individuals who are not acquainted.
Note
Although antipathy is indeed highest among people with no contact with the outgroups (n = 18,270, AMCE = 15 percentage points, 95% confidence interval = 13–16, z = 20.36, P < 0.001), it is substantial across all contact levels (AMCEs = 5–12 percentage points, z ≥ 2.4, P < 0.05).
