Motivational Interviewing for Vaccine Uptake in Latinx Adults

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1. 1This trial was terminated before completing — do you know why it ended early, and does that affect whether motivational interviewing is still considered a useful approach for vaccine hesitancy?
2. 2Since this study was focused on Latinx adults receiving care at behavioral health visits, would that kind of conversation-based support around COVID-19 or flu vaccines be something available to me through my own care team, even outside a research setting?
3. 3The trial was measuring whether a behavioral health visit conversation could increase COVID-19 and flu vaccine uptake — are there other completed studies on motivational interviewing for vaccines that might give us more reliable information about whether this approach actually works?
4. 4Because the trial was terminated and is listed as phase 'not applicable,' what does that mean for the strength of any evidence it produced, and should I look for other research before deciding how to address my own vaccine hesitancy?
5. 5If I'm hesitant about vaccines, what options do you think make the most sense for me right now, given that this particular study didn't run its full course?
