The Cultural Influence of Familismo in Prompting Vaccination Against Covid-19 Among U.S. Latina/o/x Border Residents

We find that, for many members of these communities, getting vaccinated is seen as a way to protect not only one…

It is also structured by information poverty, local Latinx border practices, and cultural c…
