In one of the most polarizing polls we've ever had, GuelphToday readers are largely at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to convincing the remaining unvaccinated people to get vaccinated.

GuelphToday.com polled 2,604 readers and asked the question: How do we convince the remaining unvaccinated to get vaccinated?

Most people, 38.75 per cent, said we don't compel them to get vaccinated because it's their choice. At the other end of the spectrum, 30.76 per cent of those voting said being vaccinated should be mandated by law that people get vaccinated.

The poll ran from 8/24/2021 to 8/30/2021. Of the 2604 votes, we can determine that 1,030 are from within the community. The full results are as follows:
