摘要
背景:一种有效的新型COVID-19疫苗的出现可以扑灭当前破坏性的大流行，但疫苗犹豫是公共卫生系统的一个障碍，因此本研究估计了印度COVID-19疫苗接种的优先目标群体医护人员的COVID-19疫苗接种意愿和犹豫。方法:采用滚雪球抽样技术，对印度北部联邦属地昌迪加尔的卫生保健工作者进行了基于网络的横断面调查。2021年1月2日至25日期间，共有403名医护人员参加了这项研究。收集的主要数据是接种现有COVID-19疫苗的意愿以及对新疫苗的担忧。采用研制的疫苗态度量表对新型冠状病毒肺炎疫苗态度进行评估。这些问卷是通过WhatsApp发送的，由参与者通过谷歌表格填写。结果:403名被调查者中，绝大多数(54.6%)表示有接种新冠疫苗的明确意向，但有7%的人表示对接种新冠疫苗有抵抗力。感知易感性(aOR = 0.511, CI 0.265 ~ 0.987)、COVID-19感染严重程度(aOR = 0.551 CI 0.196 ~ 0.704)和不关心新型COVID-19疫苗疗效(aOR = 0.702 CI 1.109 ~ 26.55)有意接种COVID-19疫苗的显著率最高。大多数人(62%)担心疫苗的安全性，包括副作用、质量控制和对疫苗有效性的怀疑。对疫苗益处的不信任是医护人员疫苗犹豫的重要预测因子(aOR = 5.205 CI 3.106-8.723)。结论:因此，应制定战略沟通和疫苗接受计划，以消除对疫苗安全性和有效性的普遍不信任，实现有效覆盖，获得群体免疫。
COVID-19 vaccination intention and hesitancy: Mistrust on COVID-19 vaccine benefit a major driver for vaccine hesitancy among healthcare workers; a cross-sectional study in North India.
Background: The advent of an effective novel COVID-19 vaccine could extinguish the current devastating pandemic but the vaccine hesitancy is a hurdle for the public health system, so this study estimated the COVID-19 vaccination intention and hesitancy among the healthcare workers, the priority target group for the COVID-19 vaccination in India.
Methods: A web-based cross-sectional survey was conducted among the healthcare workers in Chandigarh, a union territory in North India, using a Snowball sampling technique. A total of 403 healthcare workers participated in the study between 2nd and 25th January 2021. The primary data collected were the intention to get vaccinated against the available COVID-19 vaccine and the concerns regarding the new vaccines. The attitude towards novel COVID-19 vaccine was assessed using developed Vaccine attitude examination scale. These questionnaire, which were delivered via WhatsApp, was filled by the participants over Google forms.
Results: Among the 403 respondents surveyed, the majority (54.6%) reported they were definitely intended to get vaccinated against COVID-19, however, 7% expressed a resistance for inoculation with COVID-19 vaccination. The perceived susceptibility (aOR = 0.511, CI 0.265-0.987) and severity of COVID-19 infection (aOR = 0.551 CI 0.196-0.704) and not being concerned about the efficacy of new COVID-19 vaccines (aOR = 0.702 CI 1.109-26.55) were found to have the highest significant odds of intention to take the COVID-19 vaccine. The majority (62%) were concerned about the safety of the vaccine, in terms of side-effects, quality control, and doubted efficacy of the vaccine. The mistrust of the benefits of the vaccine is a significant predictor for vaccine hesitancy among the healthcare workers (aOR = 5.205 CI 3.106-8.723).
Conclusion: Therefore, strategic communication and vaccine-acceptance programs should be formulated in order to combat the prevailing mistrust on the vaccine safety and efficacy and attain effective coverage to gain herd immunity.
