Meet 4 typical unvaccinated Americans, from a Latino agriculture worker to a 12-year-old Snapchat user with Republican parents
A white Republican, a young Black person, a 12-year-old Snapchat user, and a Latino agricultural worker are four common unvaccinated Americans.
Three in ten Americans have not received a COVID-19 vaccine, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Insider analyzed survey data from Kaiser Family Foundation, Morning Consult, the US Census Bureau, and other data sources to estimate four profiles of non-vaccinated Americans.
Here are four typical unvaccinated Americans:
1. A white man in a rural area with no college degree who identifies as a Republican
The typical American who said they will “definitely not” get the COVID-19 vaccine is a white Republican who has health insurance.
They are typically 30 to 49 years old and live in a suburb or rural area. Nearly all of the states with the highest vaccine unwillingness rates are more rural than urban, according to FiveThirtyEight’s urbanization index.
