"To Be Vaccinated or Not to Be Vaccinated": Factors Influencing COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy and Future Vaccination Willingness Amongst US Women of Reproductive Age.

Background & objectives: Growing data on the impact of herd immunity and susceptibility of unvaccinated persons to chronic COVID sequelae requires deeper understanding of vaccine stigma and hesitancy to facilitate population needs. Reproductive-aged women (18-45 years) were at a "vaccine paradox" during COVID-19 - hesitant to receive the vaccine, yet at increased risk for COVID infection. In this study, we sought to: identify demographic predictors, reasons, geographic location of vaccine hesitancy, and COVID-specific attributes that predict future vaccination willingness. We hypothesized that high COVID risk perception and high COVID stress would be predictors of willingness.

Methods: Study Design: Cross-sectional survey of women across the United States. Main Outcomes and Measures: Vaccine hesitancy was defined as responding "No/Not Sure" to the question "Have you received any of the COVID-19 vaccines?" The COVID-Risk scale evaluate perceived COVID Risk, and the COVID-19 Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10-c) evaluated COVID stress. Open ended questions inquired about participants' vaccine concerns.

Results: Of the 1,037 women who accessed the survey, 948 (91%) consented and completed. Predictors of vaccine hesitancy included younger aged parents (p=0.005), non-white race (p=0.003), and having high school or lower educational attainment (p<0.0001). Using smoking as a proxy measure of "health behavior", we found long-term smokers or quitters were more hesitant than those who never smoked (p=0.03). Geographic analyses showed the most vaccine hesitant women resided in Southeast and Midwest US. Hesitancy reasons included side effects (21%) and fertility/pregnancy concerns (4%). High COVID risk perception (p=0.0004) and high COVID stress (p=0.01) significantly predicted future willingness to get vaccinated.

Conclusions and relevance: This research provides insights for managing the "vaccine paradox" in reproductive age women, and identifying factors that influence COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and future vaccination willingness. Public health and policy advocates could target messaging around COVID risk and stress in Southeastern and Midwestern regions; as well as address women's concerns around fertility and other side effects.
