Tunis Survey, an expert in online surveys and digital studies, has just revealed the results of its survey: Tunisian and the Covid-19 vaccine. The study intends to understand the Tunisian stance towards the vaccine. This survey is based on a self-administered online questionnaire.
It should be remarked that this is the fourth wave of the inquiry. As a reminder, the third wave, which took place from July 6 to 13, 2021, revealed that 13.6% of Tunisians were reluctant in the face of the vaccine. The fourth wave took place from September 20 to 28, 2021. The sample size after screening is 2445 respondents.
Despite numerous national vaccination days, 10.2% of Tunisians remain reluctant
When questioned”Are you going to get vaccinated?”, 20.7% of respondents say YES.
The reluctant represent 10.2% of respondents with 6.7% rejecting the vaccine and 3.5% still not sure whether they are going to be vaccinated or not.
Those under 30 are the most uncertain:
- 32% of those under 30 state they will not get the vaccine or are still hesitant. They were 33.6% reluctant in wave 3.
- 17.4% decline the vaccination and 14.6% still hesitate to be vaccinated.
- They are additionally the smallest segment of the population who have been vaccinated as only 33.3% of those under 30 report having received the vaccine.
Pfizer-BioNTech ranks first!
Replying to the question, “If you are going to get the vaccine and you have a choice, which COVID vaccine will you pick?” The respondents chose:
- 52.1% Pfizer-BioNTech;
- AstraZeneca / Oxford at 12.2%;
- Janssen up to 9.5%;
- Moderna at 9.3%;
- Unimportant up to 5.9%;
- Sinovac up to 4.1%;
- Sinopharm up to 3.6%;
- Sputnik V at 3.4%;
Pfizer-BioNTech remains the most sought vaccine for 04 waves, despite the availability of the Janssen single-dose vaccine
Confidence to get vaccinated but also a proposed vaccine that is not suitable
Asking the question, “Why are you not going to get vaccinated?”, It turns out that lack of confidence is the most prominent barrier to getting vaccinated.
Indeed, 47.9% of those who will not be vaccinated do not trust the vaccines, approximately the same proportion as in wave 3 (47.7%).
19.6% of those who do not get vaccinated are against vaccination in general. 19% claim that they have already been sick and are consequently immune. 14.7% are because the proposed vaccine is unsuitable.
Progress of the vaccination campaign
77.5% of those who have already been vaccinated received the 2 doses of vaccine against 22.5% awaiting the booster.
86.1% of those vaccinated claim to have had no or simply mild effects. They are 61.7% to have received Pfizer-BioNTech as a vaccine
