Belief in vaccination misinformation predicts attitudes toward vaccinating 5- to 11-year-olds

Caption

Survey panel respondents who reported greater belief in vaccine misinformation (had a higher vaccine misinformation score) were less likely to recommend vaccination for a 5- to 11-year-old – and as the probability of recommending vaccination increased, belief in vaccine misinformation decreased.
