    Findings. The first major theme of this report is that consumers and news outlets discussed the superiority of infection-induced immunity over COVID-19 vaccine-induced immunity with many concluding that infection-induced immunity is superior to vaccine-induced immunity. The second major theme is that consumers questioned the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines as a surge in breakthrough cases is being reported. A third theme is that consumers continued to have concerns about adverse events and unknown side effects of COVID-19 vaccines. The fourth and fifth findings during this report period are regarding consumers’ concerns and opposition to pediatric COVID-19 vaccines and vaccine requirements.

    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 misinformation with evidence-based messaging. These efforts aim to increase confidence in COVID-19 vaccines and expand vaccine uptake more broadly. Partners should create and disseminate messages about the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 primary series and booster doses compared to acquiring SARSCoV-2 infection-induced immunity.
