Hate to say it but I have to agree.

What was the design of the survey?? Is it statistically significant? I don't know.

However, if it was a simple "are you vaccinated?" survey, the results might be quite biased. Every doctor(medical doctors, not the pretenders or quacks) knows damn well he/she should be vaccinated. So if he/she wasn't, they might not own up to it.

Also, in my experience, you can't get 96% of doctors to agree on whether the Earth is round, much less get vaccinated.
