Marvin Reis und Niels Michalski haben gemeinsam mit Wissenschaftler*innen des Robert-Koch-Instituts (RKI) und des Deutschen Instituts für Wirtschaftsforschung (DIW) einen Artikel in Scientific Reports veröffentlicht. Mithilfe repräsentativer Umfragedaten aus dem Sozio-oekonomischen Panel (SOEP) und regionalen Daten des German Index of Socioeconomic Deprivation (GISD) analysieren sie Unterschiede im Impfverhalten in Deutschland und beleuchten dabei die zeitlich-kontextuelle Dimension der Verbreitung der Impfung.

Abstract

Combining the frameworks of fundamental causes theory and diffusion of innovation, scholars had anticipated a delayed COVID-19 vaccination uptake for people in lower socioeconomic position depending on the socioeconomic context. We qualify these propositions and analyze educational differences in COVID-19 vaccination status over the first ten months of Germany’s vaccination campaign in 2021. Data from the study “Corona Monitoring Nationwide” (RKI-SOEP-2), collected between November 2021 and February 2022, is linked with district-level data of the German Index of Socioeconomic Deprivation (GISD). We estimated the proportion of people with at least one vaccination dose stratified by educational groups and within different settings of regional socioeconomic deprivation at three time points. Logistic multilevel regression models were applied to adjust for multiple covariates and to test cross-level-interactions between educational levels and levels of area-level socioeconomic deprivation. Vaccination rates were lower among respondents with lower education. With increasing area-level socioeconomic deprivation, educational differences were larger due to particularly low vaccination rates in groups with low education levels. The analysis of vaccination timing reveals that educational gaps and gaps by area-level socioeconomic deprivation had appeared early in the vaccination campaign and did not close completely before the 4th wave of COVID-19 infections.
