This journal article by da Silva et al. presents the findings from a study investigating the prevalence of COVID-19 testing, diagnosis, and vaccine acceptance among sexual and gender minority people in the United States. Results show that medical mistrust, social concern, altruism and race were associated with level of vaccine acceptance and should be considered in immunization planning for LGBTQ2S+ communities.
