Pneumonia, Shingles, and Covid Immunization Rates and Associated Factors in Senior Housing Residents

To build off what is currently known about community-dwelling older adults and vaccine behavior, we evaluated immunizations rates among older adults living in low-income senior housing. It was hypothesized that age, cardiac and respiratory disease, diabetes, ethnicity, race, gender, marital status, perceived health status, engagement in physical activity, smoking behavior, alcohol use, and a hospitalization in the past year would be associated with getting a shingles, pneumonia, or COVID-19 immunization.
