Weekly Child Influenza Vaccination Status and Intent in the United States, 2023-24

2023-24 flu season data from the National Immunization Survey-Child COVID Module provides weekly influenza vaccination coverage estimates for children aged 6 months to 17 years in the United States. The dataset includes vaccination status and parental intent for vaccination, broken down by selected demographics and jurisdiction.

Use Cases

• Analyze weekly trends in influenza vaccination coverage among children 6 months to 17 years across different jurisdictions.
• Model parental intent for vaccination based on selected demographic variables like age group or geographic region.
• Compare vaccination status and intent for vaccination between different demographic subgroups during the 2023-24 season.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
• Provides weekly temporal granularity for tracking vaccination trends during the 2023-24 flu season.
• Covers a nationally relevant population of children aged 6 months to 17 years in the United States.

Limitations

• Specific row count, column count, and sample size are unknown, limiting assessment of statistical power.
• Data is limited to a single flu season (2023-24), preventing longitudinal or multi-year analysis.
• The raw description suggests the data is part of a COVID-19 vaccination module, which may affect the primary focus or collection methodology for flu data.
