Step 1: Understand the definitions of population and sample. The population refers to the entire group of individuals or objects that we want to study, while the sample is a subset of the population that is actually observed or surveyed.
Step 2: Identify the population in the problem. The population is all U.S. adults, as the survey aims to understand vaccine reactions among this group.
Step 3: Identify the sample in the problem. The sample consists of the 1500 U.S. adults who were surveyed. This is the subset of the population used to gather data.
Step 4: Describe the sample data set. The sample data set includes information about the 1500 surveyed U.S. adults, specifically the proportion (59%) who reported never having a vaccine reaction.
Step 5: Note the source of the data. The data was collected from SingleCare, which provides context and credibility to the survey results.
