*The P value is for comparisons of vaccine uptake between subgroups of the variable examined (e.g., maternal age).
**Statistically significant results. The Bonferroni-corrected P values for statistical significance were 5.38 × 10−6 for maternal age, 1.47 × 10−6 for ethnicity, and 3.23 × 10−6 for IMD.
