الوصف: Background Vaccine hesitancy (VH) is adversely affecting the public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Similarly, influenza vaccine uptake is suboptimal. We monitored trends in VH to influenza, COVID-19, and routine childhood vaccines. Methods A repeated cross-sectional survey in English and Spanish of caregiver influenza and COVID-19 knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and associated VH among hospitalized children 6 mo-18 yrs at a pediatric hospital. We enrolled over 4 seasons (S); ‘19-20 (S1), ‘20-21 (S2), ‘21-22 (S3), ‘22-23 (S4). In S4, we targeted caregivers of children 6 mo-11 yrs. VH was assessed using the Parent Attitudes about Childhood Vaccines (PACV) survey; PACV score ≥ 50 denoted VH. In S4, a messaging intervention was piloted. Caregivers were randomized to watch 1 of 2 COVID-19 educational videos; half watched a second video featuring a family adversely impacted by COVID-19. All caregivers completed a survey to assess acceptance and efficacy of the video(s) in changing intent to vaccinate their child. Figure 1. Participant flow chart from 2019-2023 Results Across all seasons, ≥ 92% of caregivers approached were enrolled. Most (48%) identified as Hispanic/Latino, 35% as White, and 19% as Black. By parental report, 94% of children in S1, 91% in S2, 91% in S3, and 89% in S4 were up-to-date with routine vaccines. Based on PACV score, 13% were VH in S1, 17% in S2, 19% in S3, and 20% in S4 (p=0.14). During S2-3, fewer caregivers endorsed “flu can be a dangerous infection in children” and “I am scared of my child getting the flu” (p< 0.01). Decreased concern recovered in S4 but did not translate to increased vaccine uptake (Table 1). Caregivers were less scared of their child getting COVID-19 and more scared of the vaccine in S4. Fewer caregivers in S4 were willing to receive the COVID-19 vaccine; 46% in S2, 54% in S3, and 29% in S4 had/planned to vaccinate their child (Table 2). Of 800 caregivers, 74% liked the educational videos and 54% thought they were helpful when considering the ...
