Abstract

We estimate the influence of education on vaccine hesitancy focusing on the Covid-19 pandemic. To address the bias arising from the endogeneity of education, we leverage the variation introduced by an extension in school-leaving age that took place in the UK in 1972 and employ a fuzzy regression discontinuity design. We find evidence that an additional year of schooling decreases Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy.
