Racial Factors that Affect Adult Vaccination Uptake

Ongoing vaccination disparities, with Hispanic populations consistently having the lowest coverage for influenza and pneumococcal vaccines
Door-to-door, population-based survey was conducted in ten Chicago communities from 2015 to 2016
1543 adults that completed the survey
Study participants who received the influenza vaccination were more likely to be female, older, and insured
Black study participants who had high confidence and trust in their doctor were more likely to be vaccinated (45% vs 20%; P < .01)
Trust or confidence had no effect on influenza vaccination for Hispanic participants.
