Est. weighted US population estimate, HCP healthcare provider, CI confidence interval

a

Estimates are percentage of parents indicating the response from among parents who indicated that a doctor influenced their vaccination decision

b

Estimates are percentage of parents indicating the response from among parents who indicated that a nurse influenced their vaccination decision

c

Estimates are percentage of parents indicating the response from among parents who indicated that another healthcare provider influenced their vaccination decision

d

Estimates of this decision group differ significantly from “non-hesitant acceptors” and “hesitant acceptors” (p < 0.001)

e

Estimates of this decision group differ significantly from “delayers” (p < 0.05)
