OBJECTIVE
Mobile populations are at high risk for communicable diseases and can serve as a bridge between sending and receiving communities. The objective of this study is to determine the rates of, and factors associated with, seasonal influenza vaccination among Mexican migrants traveling through the US-Mexico border.
METHODS
We used a 2013 cross-sectional population-based survey of adult mobile Mexican migrants traveling through the Mexico-US border region (N=2313; weighted N=652,500). We performed a multivariable logistic regression analysis to model the odds of receiving an influenza vaccination in the past year by sociodemographics, migration history, health status, and access to health care.
RESULTS
The seasonal influenza vaccination rate in this population was 18.6%. Gender, health status, and health insurance were associated with the likelihood to receive an influenza vaccination.
CONCLUSION
Overall, the rates of seasonal influenza vaccination in circular Mexican migrants are low compared to adults in Mexico and the US Efforts are needed to increase influenza vaccination among this highly mobile population, particularly in adults with chronic conditions.
目的
流动人口面临传染病的高风险，且可成为输出社区和接收社区之间的桥梁。本研究的目的是确定穿越美墨边境的墨西哥移民中季节性流感疫苗接种率及相关因素。
方法
我们采用了2013年基于人群的横断面调查，对象为穿越墨西哥-美国边境地区的成年流动墨西哥移民（N = 2313；加权N = 652,500）。我们进行了多变量逻辑回归分析，以通过社会人口统计学、移民史、健康状况和获得医疗保健的机会来模拟过去一年接受流感疫苗接种的几率。
结果
该人群的季节性流感疫苗接种率为18.6%。性别、健康状况和健康保险与接受流感疫苗接种的可能性相关。
结论
总体而言，与墨西哥和美国的成年人相比，循环流动的墨西哥移民的季节性流感疫苗接种率较低。需要做出努力，以提高这一高流动性人群的流感疫苗接种率，尤其是患有慢性病的成年人。
