Uhh... their study is garbage based entirely on the volume and make up. They cannot get to any statistical significant findings by looking at this group of people's opinions. This is in no way a relevant sample sizing of any area. How do I know this is a total bullshit study? The makeup of it, for "Eastern PA", 29.4% white, 38% black, 27% Hispanic. there is no county in PA that even comes close to that demographic make up.

​

so implying that "under 45, and minority" is a qualifier of anything is fucking nonsense. They also have a nonsense age range "under 45" or "over 45"... why? because their numbers are shit so they had to grab something that encompassed enough people to make a headline. Only 25% of the people were over 45... there is no way it could have resulted in anything other then a headline of "younger are more skeptical" when 3/4 of your group is younger.

​

I would also like to point out that across PA, the more urban the area the better the vax rate. More urban areas also have a higher percentage of minorities, and youth. while extremely white areas with older populations and under-educated populations are the lowest on the vax rating.

​

Lets look at REAL reasoning show we?

​

Potter County, Bradford County, Bedford County, Juniata County, and Fulton County are the worst... all have the worst percentages... and they have LESS THEN 1000 black people living in them TOTAL, like all combined total. these are insane republican strongholds... like 80%+ voted for Oz/Mastriano

Where does Vaccine Hesitancy come from? Far right news media. All the extremely clear evidence points directly to a crystal clear link between republican / conservative news media consumption and vaccine hesitancy
