    Date Range: November 30 – December 20, 2021 ; Findings. The major theme for this report is that some consumers express distrust for the authorization of COVID-19 vaccines after CDC updated its recommendations with a preference for the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines over the Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine. A second theme is that consumers and news outlets continue to have questions and concerns about the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant. Third, consumers and parents continue to discuss concerns surrounding COVID-19 vaccines for children. The final finding from this report is that consumers have questions and concerns about the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 booster dose, mixing vaccine brands and types, and the potential need for additional booster doses. ; Ways to take action. Federal, state, and local partners should continue to work together to explain the rationale for updated guidance, respond to gaps in information, and confront mis/disinformation with evidence-based messaging.
