Your Children and COVID-19 Vaccines

The following questions will ask about your child or children and COVID-19 vaccines. To date, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized several vaccines that protect against COVID-19 for adults and children ages 12 and above, and in the future expects to authorize vaccines for younger children. We want to learn more about your plans related to these vaccines for each of your children to better understand vaccination plans among all Americans. We will not ask for any identifying information about your children, such as their names or dates of birth. For the following questions, please assume there are enough vaccines so that everyone who wants a COVID-19 vaccine can get one.

[IF ANY CHILD_AGE_x =0-18]

[LOOP BEH27-BEH28 FOR EACH DISCRETE VALUE PROVIDED IN CHILD_AGE_x SERIES (E.G., IF CHILD_AGE_1=2 AND CHILD_AGE_2=3 AND CHILD_AGE_3=4, LOOP 3 TIMES. IF CHILD_AGE_1=2 AND CHILD_AGE_2=2 AND CHILD_AGE_3=4, LOOP 2 TIMES.]

[LOOPS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH ONLY ONE CHILD_AGE_x VALUE UNLESS THERE ARE DUPLICATE VALUES IN CHILD_AGE_x SERIES. DUPLICATE VALUES WILL ALL BE COMBINED INTO ONE LOOP, SHOWN IN THE CHILD_AGE_x SEQUENCE FOR THE FIRST INSTANCE OF THAT VALUE]

[CREATE DOV_DUPE_x. IF LOOP IS FOR A SINGLE VALUE IN THE CHILD_AGE_x SERIES, DOV_DUPE_x=0. IF LOOP IS FOR MULTIPLE DUPLICATE VALUES OF CHILD_AGE_x, DOV_DUPE_x=1]
