A random-effects model utilized pooled effects considering expected variability studies. Heterogeneity, risk bias, publication bias quality were considered evaluated by appropriate tests ensure robust results. Results Twenty-five 30,844 parents included. The overall rate who intended 48.0% (95% CI: 41.0–54.0%) high heterogeneity ( I 2 = 99.42%). main reason vaccinate protect child, family community COVID-19. Perceived efficacy/safety most significant associated children. Conclusion first which emphasized priority focus vaccine-related factors as main/key strategy vaccines’ drivers convince a logical way based accurate cumulative emerging scientific data about efficacy safety optimize children/adolescents. can provide valuable insights development evidence-based policies improve parental children, is crucial controlling SARS-CoV-2 spread promoting herd immunity particularly if virus continues pose major threat.
