To assess factors associated with timely second-dose completion, we analyzed COVID-19 vaccine data from community-based and mobile vaccine clinics in Maryland. Overall, 85.3% of patients received a timely second dose. Factors associated with a timely second dose included Latino ethnicity (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.1, 2.0) and receipt of the first dose at community-based vaccine clinics (AOR = 2.1; 95% CI = 1.8, 2.5). Future health initiatives for underserved communities should focus on establishing vaccine clinics in trusted community spaces with culturally sensitive support.

为了评估与及时完成第二剂接种相关的因素,我们分析了马里兰州社区和流动疫苗接种诊所的 COVID-19 疫苗数据。总体而言,85.3%的患者及时接种了第二剂。与及时接种第二剂相关的因素包括拉丁裔种族(调整后的优势比 [OR] = 1.5;95%置信区间 [CI] = 1.1, 2.0)和在社区疫苗接种诊所接种第一剂(OR = 2.1;95% CI = 1.8, 2.5)。未来面向服务不足社区的健康倡议应侧重于在具有文化敏感性支持的可信社区场所建立疫苗接种诊所。(2023;113(9):947-951. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307338)。
