Vaccination rates among international students: Insights from a university health vaccination initiative
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective: To examine the effects of a university’s health vaccination initiative in increasing vaccination rates among international students/scholars in the United States. Methods: The vaccination initiative included: increasing vaccination opportunities by holding a pre-registration event, providing vaccine recommendations from healthcare professionals including a bilingual health interpreter, implementing campus-based marketing strategies, sending reminders using social media, and offering free and affordable vaccines. Results: Total 575 international students/scholars attended from 2016 to 2019 (N = 118, 163, 193, and 101, respectively), showing an increase compared to 2015. The most common vaccines administered were for influenza, human papillomavirus (HPV), tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap), and Hepatitis A. Slightly less than one-quarter of participants received three or more vaccines. More women than men received HPV vaccine. Participants shared they would not have been vaccinated without this initiative and wished for more vaccination events. Conclusions: Future efforts are needed to implement this initiative across universities to further evaluate its effectiveness.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
