COVID-19疫苗的引入是公共卫生的重大突破。然而，已经受到COVID-19病毒不成比例影响的美国黑人和西班牙裔社区成员可能不太愿意接种疫苗。我们对美国成年人（N = 1，950）进行了广泛的代表性调查，以更好地了解疫苗信念，并探索增加这些群体对疫苗接受度的机会。调查结果表明，黑人和西班牙裔人比白人更不愿意接种疫苗。美国黑人和西班牙裔还计划推迟接种COVID-19疫苗的时间比白人更长，这可能会进一步增加已经经历高患病率的人群感染COVID-19的风险。与白人和西班牙裔相比，黑人受访者根本不太可能想要COVID-19疫苗，黑人受访者对疫苗的不信任程度明显高于其他种族/族裔群体。令人鼓舞的是，许多黑人和西班牙裔受访者报告说，来自同种族医疗专业人员的COVID-19疫苗认可将增加他们接受疫苗的意愿。这些受访者表示，他们还将受到更多关于疫苗研究参与者的信息的激励，这些参与者是他们自己的种族和民族。研究结果对改善文化定制沟通的信息传递具有重要意义，有助于减少受大流行影响不成比例的社区对COVID-19疫苗的犹豫。
The introduction of COVID-19 vaccines is a major public health breakthrough. However, members of US Black and Hispanic communities, already disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 virus, may be less willing to receive the vaccine. We conducted a broad, representative survey of US adults (N = 1,950) in order to better understand vaccine beliefs and explore opportunities to increase vaccine acceptance among these groups. The survey results suggested that Black and Hispanic individuals were less willing than Whites to receive the vaccine. US Blacks and Hispanics also planned to delay receiving the COVID-19 vaccine for a longer time period than Whites, potentially further increasing the risk of contracting COVID-19 within populations that are already experiencing high disease prevalence. Black respondents were less likely to want the COVID-19 vaccine at all compared with Whites and Hispanics, and mistrust of the vaccine among Black respondents was significantly higher than other racial/ethnic groups. Encouragingly, many Black and Hispanic respondents reported that COVID-19 vaccine endorsements from same-race medical professionals would increase their willingness to receive it. These respondents said they would also be motivated by receiving more information on the experiences of vaccine study participants who are of their own race and ethnicity. The results have implications for improved messaging of culturally-tailored communications to help reduce COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among communities disproportionately impacted by the pandemic.
