Poll of the Day > What Percentage of Gamefaqs Users do you think are VACCINATED????

(+) Yeah! (+)

As we know different countries have different statistics on how vaccinated their population is.

For example Canada is 70% fully vaccinated while the US is at a low 54% although not as bad as anti-science Russia which is only 23%....

But what do you think the community of gamefaqs is in terms of vaccination?

I'd guess right about 50% or slightly less. 50% would be what we would expect in the general US population for those 28-35, but GameFAQs skews male, and men are significantly more vaccine hesitant.

---

60% Some are young teens who probably don't care, others are exempt for whatever reason or simply can't get it and we probably have some anti vaccine folk.

Presumably, those numbers have gone up in the past two months, so we can reasonably estimate somewhere in the realm of 60% fully vaxxed and 70-72% partially.

Which honestly I still call an abysmal failture since the spread rate of covid necessitates a 79% vaccination rate.

---

A lot of underrage people who haven't gotten the vaccine are probably on this site, but they probably also tend to come from countries which have better access to vaccines, so it's a bit hard to say.

Pretty sure most people who still use GameFAQs are old farts who don't want to leave the boards

I mean the age to sign up is 13 so I'm sure young teens still use this.

Relatively few. GameFAQs is very much a relic of a much older Internet than the one young teens are using. People don't go looking for FAQs/guides for games anymore, with the advent of wikis and video walkthroughs, and when they do want to discuss specific games, they tend toward Reddit and other, more modern forums over GameFAQs. The site's not completely obsolete, by any means, and the occasional new, younger user will join, but the average results of the annual "how old are you?" poll have been steadily climbing for a long time now. GameFAQs just isn't what the kids are looking for these days, no matter how many times it tries to redesign itself to incorporate features every other forum has had for 20 years.

Still I'll include them as you know they actually use the site and when trying to guess the answer to this question it's important I include all users.

Maybe 66 percent.

---

Well a lot of them arent in the US and I know many countries arent getting vaccines like they should if we lived in a sane world

I would guess around 50%

I'm happy I don't use reddit. The possibility of even arguing with a child on the internet isn't something I'd care for.

^ no need to argue with children on the internet, when you instead go on the internet and advocate for kids being subjected to discrimination in school

I'll take your word for it as I wouldn't know about that. You do you though.

Kids gotta learn stuff somehow. Schools tell them some really stupid shit.

I'd imagine folk on the internet do too.

---

If we account for the majority of users coming from the US or Canada, and compare rates around the developed world, I'm guessing by method of ass-pull-estimation that the number is 58.7%, with a margin of error of 3.14 being, actually, rather optimistic.
