Parents’ views on pediatric COVID-19 vaccine in Saudi Arabia
Our study demonstrated a negative attitude toward the pediatric COVID-19 vaccine among parents in Saudi Arabia. A higher level of awareness about the vaccine was significantly associated with planning on having the vaccine. There is a need for effective awareness programs for better pediatric COVID-19 vaccine-related education to increase the acceptance of the vaccine among parents in Saudi Arabia.
