About
Subjects enrolled in this study are eligible for the seasonal influenza vaccine. The purpose of this research study is to figure out if increasing individuals' awareness of the benefits of herd immunity, specifically to the local pediatric oncology community, can improve vaccination uptake rates.
Full description
The purpose of this study is to identify associations with influenza vaccine hesitancy, including parental demographics and altruism score, in families with healthy children attending two pediatric practices.
Also, in the cohort of families with baseline vaccine hesitancy, to assess the effectiveness of a pilot educational intervention focusing on the development of herd immunity for pediatric oncology patients by measuring:
Another aim is to explore the relationship between baseline influenza vaccine hesitancy rates and baseline altruism scores. Effectiveness of this intervention is dependent on parental altruism levels; therefore, the study team also seeks to determine if there is an association between parental altruism and vaccine hesitancy for their children.
This is a single-arm prospective cohort study. The study will enroll legal guardians of children who are influenza vaccine-eligible to measure their vaccine hesitancy scores, altruism scores, and the impact of an educational intervention focused on herd immunity on the guardians' vaccine hesitancy score.
