Factors contributing to vaccine hesitancy and reduced vaccine confidence in rural underserved populations
Vaccination remains one of the most effective ways to limit the spread of infectious diseases, and reduce mortality and morbidity in rural areas. Waning public confidence in vaccines, especially the COVID-19 vaccine, remains a cause for concern. A number of individuals in the US and worldwide remain complacent, choosing not to be vaccinated and/or delay COVID-19 vaccination, resulting in suboptimal herd immunity.

The participant’s responses were at baseline to 3-month outcome and 3-month to 6-month outcome. The Health-Promoting Life…
Praying for Health by Older Adults in the United States
We studied praying for health using data from the 2007 National Health Interview Survey (n = 10,096), representing 89.6 million Americans ages 50+. Unadjusted analysis and multivariate logistic regression accounted for the survey design. Nearly 49.4 million older adults prayed for health. African Americans and Hispanics were more much likely to do so than whites, with adjusted odds ratios 2.79 and 1.86 (both p < .0001). Adjusted odds for women we…

The Use of Advance Directives in a Population of Asian Indian Hindus
Advance directives are a way to communicate the kind of care that people desire at the end of life. Recent research shows that ethnic minorities have been found to complete advance directives significantly less often than Caucasians, and no information was available regarding advance directives in the Asian Indian population. To address this shortcoming, this descriptive exploratory design sampled a community sample of 45 Asian Indian Hindus. Bei…
