Application of the actor-partner interdependence model to understand COVID-19 vaccine decision-making among US adolescents and their parents.

Although adolescents play an important role in their medical decisions, including vaccination, few studies have considered their perceptions or role in vaccine decision-making. We apply the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model to understand actor (adolescent) and partner (parent) influences of vaccine hesitancy on the decision to vaccinate adolescents. We conducted a nationally representative survey of adolescents aged 12-17 years old and their parents (n = 721 dyads). Parents and adolescents completed separate online surveys measuring their vaccine hesitancy and intent to receive future doses

Profiling vaccine attitudes and subsequent uptake in 1·1 million people in England: a nationwide cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Despite highly effective vaccines against SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy persisted in some populations in England during the pandemic, with rates and motivations for hesitancy varying by demographic group.

We aimed to characterise the determinants and subtypes of vaccine hesitancy and identify more persistent forms of hesitancy via analysis of vaccine uptake in a large cross-sectional cohort with linke

The Long-Term Success of Mandatory Vaccination Laws After Implementing the First Vaccination Campaign in 19th Century Rural Finland.

In high-income countries, childhood infections are on the rise, a phenomenon attributed in part to persistent hesitancy toward vaccines. To combat vaccine hesitancy, several countries recently made vaccinating children mandatory, but the effect of such vaccination laws on vaccination coverage remains debated, and the long-term consequences are unknown. Here we quantified the consequences of vaccination laws on vaccination coverage, monitoring for a period of 63 years (1837-1899) rural Finland's first vaccination campaign against the highly lethal childhood infection smallpox. We found that ann

Vaccine acceptance in a future pandemic after COVID-19 and its decision drivers in Japan.

Vaccine hesitancy has long been recognized as a global health concern and has become an even greater challenge during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Egyptian hemodialysis (HD) patients have shown a high rate of hesitancy to COVID-19 primary vaccination, yet their willingness to receive booster doses is unknown. This study aimed to assess COVID-19 vaccine booster hesitancy and its
