Abstract

Introduction

Many factors influence vaccination practices and attitudes. This study aimed to identify vaccine information sources used by parents of children aged 1–15 years to get a better understanding of the relation between vaccine information sources, practices for two vaccines (MMR, HBV), vaccine acceptance, and vaccine hesitancy.

Methods

A total of 3938 parents, drawn by random sampling, were interviewed by telephone as part of the “2016 health barometer” survey. Vaccine information sources were described and analyzed according to socio-demographic variables. Multivariate logistic regression models were then built to explain vaccine information sources usage, vaccination practices and attitudes.

Results

Healthcare professionals (HCP), the Internet, and relatives were the three main vaccine information sources. Vaccination practices and acceptance were better when parents were getting information from HCPs compared with parents getting information from the Internet or relatives. Besides, getting information from the three different types of sources was associated with the highest rate of vaccine hesitancy: 70.9% (OR = 4.6; P < 0.0001) versus 34.6% among parents getting information from HCPs only.

Conclusion

Those results suggest an interest in providing quality information about vaccination on the Internet. The primary role of HCPs in vaccination decision is once again demonstrated.

信息来源对疫苗犹豫和做法的影响
许多因素影响疫苗接种的做法和态度。本研究旨在确定1-15岁儿童家长使用的疫苗信息来源,以更好地了解疫苗信息来源、两种疫苗(MMR、HBV)的使用情况、疫苗接受度和疫苗犹豫之间的关系。方法随机抽取3938名家长进行电话访谈,作为“2016年健康晴雨表”调查的一部分。根据社会人口变量描述和分析疫苗信息来源。然后建立多元逻辑回归模型来解释疫苗信息源的使用、疫苗接种做法和态度。结果卫生专业人员、互联网和亲属是疫苗信息的三个主要来源。与父母从互联网或亲戚那里获得信息相比,父母从卫生保健人员那里获得信息时,接种疫苗的做法和接受程度更好。此外,从三种不同来源获取信息与疫苗犹豫率最高相关:70.9% (OR = 4.6;P & lt;0.0001),而仅从HCPs获取信息的家长占34.6%。结论这些结果表明,有兴趣在互联网上提供有关疫苗接种的高质量信息。HCPs在疫苗接种决策中的主要作用再次得到证实。
