Key Points Question What is the association of the sufficiency and credibility of information about COVID-19 vaccination for children with parental decisions regarding the vaccine? Findings In this cross-sectional survey study of 113 450 parents, 6.5% were willing to vaccinate their child as soon as possible. Parents who perceived vaccination information to be sufficient were 3.08 times more likely to accept the vaccine than those who did not, and parents who perceived information to be credible were 7.55 times more likely to accept the vaccine than those who did not. Meaning This study suggests that providing sufficient and credible information on COVID-19 vaccines may encourage parental decision-making in favor of vaccinating children.
