56% of Americans aged 18-34 are hesitant or refuse to take the vaccine

WASHINGTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The majority of Americans who do not want to get the Covid-19 vaccine are non-voters, with 56% of those who are hesitant or refuse to be vaccinated being 18 to 34.

That is according to data from Tunnl, an audience identification and segmentation platform for the purpose driven marketing and issue advocacy economy. The analysis is based on a quarterly survey of 5,000 individuals. Tunnl created standard audiences based on the data, which were then matched to a national consumer database and weighted to be representative.

The analysis also showed that since anti-vaxxers and vaccine persuadables are non-voters and not politically engaged, they are difficult to reach as they do not follow the normal patterns of information access that most American do, relying mostly on social media.

According to Tunnl CEO, Sara Fagen, the findings represent a marked departure from prevailing beliefs about who the unvaccinated are and what messaging and media should be used to reach them.

“Based on our analysis, clearly the best route for reaching the unvaccinated is through social media,” says Fagen. “They are also a group that is not overtly political, and they skew young. So this would suggest that hesitancy is not for them a political issue, but more so one of perceived need. It would seem that the best approach for the persuadables segment would be a social media campaign that specifically speaks to the risk younger adults face from Covid and how that risk can be easily and safely ameliorated through vaccination.”

Findings from the research include:

  • NON-VOTERS: Those who do not want to get the Covid-19 vaccine or those who are persuadable, are much more likely to be politically disengaged.
    • 61% of those who won’t get the vaccine are non-voters or have no recent history of voting
    • 69% of persuadables on getting the vaccine are non-voters or have no recent history of voting.
  • NON-VOTERS: the politically disengaged are already hard to communicate with because they do not follow patterns of the American public at large. When trying to communicate with this group about the vaccine, they are best communicated with using unconventional channels/methods.
    • They are 12% less likely than the average American to watch broadcast TV
    • They are more than 30% more likely to use mobile streaming, digital radio, and social media.
    • 44% more likely than average to use WhatsApp
    • 40% more likely to use Tumblr
    • 39% more likely to use Instagram
    • 38% more likely to be in Reddit
    • 36% more likely to use Twitch
    • And they are 36% more likely to subscribe to Apple TV
    • And 32% more likely to stream ESPN+
  • UNMARRIED PARENTS: Unmarried parents are much more likely to be opposed to getting the vaccine or hesitant to get the vaccine than married parents.
    • There are 54,442,635 parents who are hesitant to get the vaccine or refuse to get the vaccine.
      • 31,257,870 (57.4%) are unmarried parents
  • YOUTH: 56% of Americans aged 18-34 are hesitant or refuse to take the vaccine.
    • Vaccine Hesitant (18-34) – 22,405,259 (32%)
    • Vaccine Refusal (18-34) – 16,732,546 (24%)
