Popis: Abstract Background Covid-19 vaccination is the main strategy to reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission, mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to examine sociodemographic differences in Covid-19 vaccine uptake among all individuals invited for Covid-19 vaccination in Denmark. Methods This study was designed as a nationwide register-based cohort study. The study population included all Danish residents aged 12 years or above in Denmark between December 27, 2020 and October 20, 2021. Individuals who died during the study period before receiving an invitation for Covid-19 vaccination were excluded. Associations between sociodemographic factors and Covid-19 vaccination uptake were analyzed using logistic regression models adjusting for age, sex, immigration status, educational level, disposable income and history of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Results The study population included 5,164,558 individuals. The overall vaccination coverage was 87.1% by October 20, 2021. In the full adjusted logistic regression models, the highest ORs for non-vaccination were observed among individuals aged 12–24 years (OR: 8.99 (95% CI: 8.76–9.23)), descendants of non-western immigrants (OR: 5.26 (95% CI: 5.18–5.33)), individuals who never had a PCR-test performed (OR: 2.93 (95% CI: 2.90–2.96)), individuals with primary school as highest completed educational level (OR: 2.87 (95% CI: 2.83–2.91)) and individuals with disposable income
