Kids COVID-19 vaccination ‘complex’ decision for parents, study shows
“Parents’ experiences making decisions regarding SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for their children were complex, even for those who were supportive of SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations,” the study states.
They found there were four main factors that parents looked at for their children in the age range of 5-18 years: Newness of the COVID-19 vaccines, politicization, social pressure and individual versus collective benefit.“Vaccine decision-making is actually complex at the best of times and then with such a new vaccine, it’s just that much more complex,” said Dr. Janet Parsons, study co-author and research scientist at St. Michael’s Hospital, which is part of Unity Health Toronto.
