Abstract

COVID-19 vaccinations are the primary tool to end the pandemic. However, vaccine hesitancy continues to be a barrier to herd-immunity in the United States. American Indians (AI) often have higher levels of distrust in western medicine and lower levels of satisfaction with health care when compared to non-Hispanic Whites. Yet AIs have high COVID-19 vaccination rates. We discuss factors that influence AI risk perceptions of COVID-19 vaccinations including the impact of COVID-19 on AI Elders, community, and culture. We conclude with future research needs on vaccination communication and how culturally congruent communication campaigns may have contributed to high COVID-19 vaccination rates.

影响美国印第安人风险认知和成功的COVID-19疫苗宣传运动的因素。

COVID-19疫苗接种是结束大流行的主要工具。然而，在美国，疫苗犹豫仍然是群体免疫的一个障碍。与非西班牙裔白人相比，美国印第安人(AI)对西医的不信任程度更高，对医疗保健的满意度更低。然而，AIs的COVID-19疫苗接种率很高。我们讨论了影响人工智能对COVID-19疫苗接种风险认知的因素，包括COVID-19对人工智能老年人、社区和文化的影响。最后，我们提出了疫苗接种沟通方面的未来研究需求，以及文化一致性的沟通活动如何可能导致高COVID-19疫苗接种率。
