According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)COVIDVaxView data, about 11% (CI 10.1 to 11.8) of children under the age of 18 are up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations.

From a state perspective, as of January 23, 2024,Massachusetts has reached about a third of children with COVID-19 vaccinations.

Furthermore, Louisana was the lowest-ranked state, with only3.1% (CI 1.2 to 5.0) of children up to date.

The CDC says up to date with the updated 2023-24 COVID-19 vaccine is defined as receipt of at least one vaccination since September 14, 2023, for children 5 years; for children <5 years, up-to-date status was defined based on the current recommendations that also take into account number of doses and brand of vaccine.

Up-to-date status was determined by survey questions on the month and year of the most recent COVID vaccine, and for children <5 years, the total number of COVID vaccinations received and brand of the most recent COVID vaccine.

Each week, estimates for prior weeks are recalculated by the CDC using the additional interviews conducted that week.
