Letter to the editor: Backdrop context of the study “Intention to vaccinate young children against COVID-19: a large-scale survey of Hong Kong parents”

Dear Editor,

We would like to share ideas on the publication “Intention to vaccinate young children against COVID-19: a large-scale survey of Hong Kong parents [1].” Hong Kong parents’ intentions to vaccinate their children were highest when there were more vaccines to choose from, followed by when vaccination rates were considered to resume school, and when there were no policy restrictions, according to Lau et al. [1]. Hong Kong parents with higher education backgrounds and family income were less willing to vaccinate their children. Many factors can influence whether or not you choose to acquire the COVID-19 vaccine. The current report provides helpful information, although it is a quick inquiry. In a recent Hong Kong article, an observation on the shift of factor pertaining to vaccination intention [2] is made. As a result, in order to read COVID-19, it is required to understand the backdrop context.
