• Unjected is a dating app launched in 2021 for unvaccinated individuals seeking like-minded connections.
  
  
• Couples are meeting on the app and bonding over shared distrust of COVID-19 vaccines and government mandates.
  
  
• Apple removed Unjected from its App Store in 2021 for "misinformation" but reinstated it in 2024.
  
  
• Senate testimony in 2025 challenged COVID vaccine efficacy and safety, citing suppressed studies and negative efficacy data.
  
  
• The app's persistence reflects a growing number of Americans who reject institutional reassurances about vaccines.

Genna Betros, 27, was scrolling Instagram four years ago when she discovered Unjected, a dating app for people who chose not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Wary of how quickly the vaccine was developed and distrusting of its government backing, Betros — who grew up in a vegetarian, politically independent New Jersey household where a headache was treated with peppermint oil before Advil — says her view of the medical system is simple: "You can't trust the doctor anymore." She believes some doctors are beholden to the pharmaceutical industry.

She'd had profiles on Hinge and Bumble, but Unjected drew a different crowd — people, she says, who wanted to "stay strong for their family and not submit to whatever the TV says."

On the app, she matched with Corey Deemer, a 28-year-old apprentice electrical lineman. It took Betros two weeks to message back; when she finally did, the two realized they lived just an hour apart and met at a bar between Philadelphia and her home in New Jersey. Deemer admits he worried she might not show. "But she showed up, and she lit up the room. We sat there and talked, played every board game there," he says. Like Betros, he was put off by what he called the "aggressive" push for Americans to get vaccinated.

A platform built around shared values
Unjected calls itself a home for "like-minded individuals seeking authentic connections with awakened voices," offering matching, video calls and group events for users who share its founders' stance. Shelby Thomson and Heather Pyle launched the app in 2021 as a place for "the unvaccinated to come together uncensored through business, friendship or love," and have since run mixers in cities across the country.

The road hasn't been smooth. Apple pulled Unjected from its App Store in 2021 over user posts containing terms like "experimental mRNA gene modifiers" and "bioweapons." Thomson called the move a free-speech violation: "Obviously, these tech giants do what they want. But it doesn't make it any less a violation of the 1st amendment." The app returned to the App Store in 2024.

Why the skepticism persists
Apps like Unjected didn't emerge in a vacuum. At a 2025 Senate subcommittee hearing on vaccine science and policy, Brownstone Institute fellow Toby Rogers testified that CDC data he reviewed showed COVID vaccine protection "was between months two and six, and by six months it showed negative efficacy" — and called its side-effect profile the worst of any vaccine in history. Attorney Aaron Siri cited an unpublished Henry Ford Health study of more than 18,000 children that he said found vaccinated kids had several times the rate of asthma, autoimmune disease and neurodevelopmental disorders. Henry Ford Health disputes the study was suppressed, saying it went unpublished due to design flaws; Stanford physician Jake Scott testified the compared groups differed too much to support the conclusions. Siri maintained the results held up even after adjusting for factors like race and birthweight.

Traditional childhood vaccines, like the measles shot, remain far less contested, credited with a large share of the decline in global infant mortality from vaccine-preventable disease over the past half-century. But the persistence of platforms built entirely around vaccine status suggests a real and growing number of Americans aren't taking institutional reassurances at face value.

An unconventional match, built on shared conviction
Whatever comes of Betros and Deemer's relationship, their story captures something bigger than one match: a corner of the dating world where people are choosing partners based on shared skepticism of institutions that, in their view, stopped earning trust somewhere around 2021.

For a growing number of Americans who are navigating conflicting messages from government agencies, pharmaceutical companies and the press, that kind of independent thinking isn't fringe anymore. It's a vote of no confidence in institutions that have repeatedly asked for blind trust instead of earning it.
