Plans to Vaccinate Children for COVID-19: A Survey of Us Parents

Abstract

\n In a national survey of 2,074 US parents of children <12 years old conducted in March 2021, 49.4% reported plans to vaccinate their child for COVID-19 when available. Lower income and less education were associated with greater parental vaccine hesitancy/resistance; safety and lack of need were primary reasons for vaccine hesitancy/resistance.\n
