| Non-Hispanic Black × IPR 1–1.99 | 1.48 (1.01, 2.19)* |
| Non-Hispanic Black × IPR 2–2.99 | 1.20 (0.75, 1.91) |
| Hispanic × IPR < 1 | 1.33 (1.02, 1.74)* |

| Hispanic × IPR 2–2.99 | 1.13 (0.84, 1.52) |
Note. IPR = income-to-poverty ratio. Model 7 included all variables used in the main effects model (model 6), but parameters are not shown here. A total of 9510 children completed the vaccination series.
