Abstract | Background: Because previous studies on adolescent COVID-19 attitudes focused on intent to get vaccinated, this study examined attitudinal factors and racial/ethnic differences associated with vaccine uptake. Methods: In a cross-sectional survey of a metropolitan high school district, students were asked about their COVID-19 attitudes, information sources, and whether they had been vaccinated. Logistic regression predicted vaccination status and adjusted odds ratios (aOR) controlled for race/ethnicity. Results: Being unvaccinated was associated with themes of distrust with concerns about vaccine newness (aOR: 0.10; 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 0.06-0.15), side effects (aOR: 0.22; 95% CI: 0.15-0.33), efficacy (aOR: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.17-0.38), distrust of vaccines (aOR: 0.16; 95% CI: 0.09-0.27), government oversight (aOR: 0.19; 95% CI: 0.13-0.30), and politicization (aOR: 0.60; 95% CI: 0.41-0.88). Vaccine uptake was influenced by official information sources, school closures, and vaccine availability. The majority of vaccinated and unvaccinated students trusted primary care professionals as a source for COVID-19 information, but their influence varied across race/ethnic groups. Conclusions: Trust and distrust were the main themes of vaccinated and unvaccinated students, respectively. Incorporating trusted information sources (primary care professionals) in information dissemination efforts may improve vaccine uptake. (As Provided). |
