OBJECTIVE
To determine if rural minority children ages 3-71 months are more likely than similar aged urban minorities to have delays in their immunization status.
METHODS
Secondary analysis of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) for the years 1993-2001.
FINDINGS
There were no substantial differences between the up-to-date immunization status of children living in metropolitan areas compared to children living in rural areas. There does appear to be a delay in introducing new vaccines into rural areas compared to metropolitan areas during the first 2 years of the vaccine recommendation. There were no significant differences in immunization status between Whites, Blacks and Hispanics living in metropolitan and rural areas.
CONCLUSIONS
Rural minority children are no more likely than other children to have delayed immunizations.
目的
确定3至71个月大的农村少数民族儿童是否比同龄城市少数民族儿童更有可能出现免疫接种延迟的情况。
方法
对1993年至2001年的国家健康访谈调查（NHIS）进行二次分析。
结果
与农村地区的儿童相比，大都市地区儿童的最新免疫接种状况没有实质性差异。在疫苗推荐的头两年，与大都市地区相比，农村地区在引入新疫苗方面似乎存在延迟。生活在大都市和农村地区的白人、黑人和西班牙裔在免疫接种状况上没有显著差异。
结论
农村少数民族儿童并不比其他儿童更有可能出现免疫接种延迟的情况。
