ASPA COVID-19 PUBLIC EDUCATION CAMPAIGN

A campaign to increase vaccine acceptance and reinforce basic prevention measures



CET – Annotated Questionnaire (Wave 34)


Note: The questions below are the proposed questions for the thirty-fourth wave of the Weekly Current Events Tracker (CET). Questions highlighted in yellow will be asked every week; questions highlighted in blue will be rotated into the survey on a monthly basis; and questions highlighted in green are meant to be asked in Wave 34 only or are being asked again to update data on a variable of interest. We will be fielding new questions about boosters, side effects, pending Pfizer approval in children, parents’ preferred vaccine location, vaccine mandates, pandemic strain on the medical system, current assessment of the pandemic, and anticipated holiday plans.

mandate_intent. President Biden recently announced a new national strategy to combat the pandemic. Parts of this approach include:

  • Requiring that all federal workers or contractors that work with the federal government receive a COVID-19 vaccine, with limited exemptions for health or religious reasons

  • Requiring that all staff or volunteers in a health care setting (e.g., hospital, nursing home, dialysis facility, ambulatory surgical setting, home health agency, etc.) that receives Medicare or Medicaid reimbursement receive a COVID-19 vaccine

  • Employers with 100+ employees will be required to provide paid time off for employees to get vaccinated and to recover from post-vaccination side effects.

Many people who are vaccinated with the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine are eligible for a booster shot.

ptn_w34_1: Many eligible for booster

ptn_w34_2

Certain people may need increased protection against COVID-19, making them eligible for a booster shot six months after their final dose.

ptn_w34_2: Certain people may need additional protection

ptn_w34_3

People under 30 can experience lingering health problems for months from the virus that causes COVID-19. In contrast, vaccine side effects almost always go away within a few days.

ptn_w34_3: Young people can experience long COVID

ptn_w34_4

Very few vaccinated people get seriously ill or need hospital care for COVID.

ptn_w34_4: Few vaccinated people are hospitalized

ptn_w34_5

Vaccines help prevent COVID from spreading because vaccinated people are much less likely to get COVID. In uncommon breakthrough COVID cases, vaccinated people are contagious for a shorter time than unvaccinated people.
