“…42 Cervantes et al, found that, for unvaccinated Latinx patients in Colorado who were hospitalized with COVID-19, opportunities to have “conversations with trusted sources, such as faith-based leaders, or access websites that provided accurate and consistent information” could improve uptake of COVID-19 prevention strategies like vaccines. 43 (p. 9) The P&P text message component was well situated to serve as a trusted source of information and to offer links to accurate information.…”

Background Text messages are useful for health promotion and can be modified during public health emergencies. Purpose Describe how we developed and implemented a physical activity (PA) text messaging component within a faith-based intervention, modified the text message content in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and evaluated participants’ perceptions of the modified text messages. Research Design and Study Sample PA promotion text messages were delivered to predominately Spanish-speaking, churchgoing Latino adults ( n = 284) in Los Angeles, California. In 2020, we modified the messages to disseminate COVID-19-related information and support and share virtual PA resources. Data Collection and Analysis We analyzed quantitative and qualitative survey data to gauge participants’ experiences with the text messages. Results COVID-19 related text messages were a feasible, acceptable addition to a PA intervention for a sample of Latinos. Conclusions Throughout the pandemic, the messages enabled continued communication and support for PA and protection from COVID-19 in a population at high-risk of health inequities.

“…Societal freedoms capture concerns related to what will and will not be allowed based on vaccination status including freedom of movement, freedom of vaccine choice, and freedom of speech related to the vaccine itself. Though some of these specific survey items have been identified in the literature from a single country [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ] this is the first analysis to identify that these concerns were common in multiple countries at the same time. This demonstrates that concerns are not limited to one country, but rather spread across borders.…”

Vaccine hesitancy is a key contributor to reduced COVID-19 vaccine uptake and remains a threat to COVID-19 mitigation strategies as many countries are rolling out the campaign for booster shots. The goal of our study is to identify and compare the top vaccine concerns in four countries: Canada, Italy, Sweden, and the USA and how these concerns relate to vaccine hesitancy. While most individuals in these countries are now vaccinated, we expect our results to be helpful in guiding vaccination efforts for additional doses, and more in general for other vaccines in the future. We sought to empirically test whether vaccine related concerns followed similar thematic issues in the four countries included in this study, and then to see how these themes related to vaccine hesitancy using data from a cross-sectional survey conducted in May 2021. We applied CFA and created vaccine concern scales for analysis. We then utilized these results in regression-based modeling to determine how concerns related to vaccine hesitancy and whether there were similar or different concerns by country. The results quantitatively highlight that the same vaccine related concerns permeated multiple countries at the same point in time. This implies that COVID-19 vaccination communications could benefit from global collaboration.
