Healthcare workers (HCWs) at an Australian cancer centre were evaluated using a voluntary declination form program to determine factors contributing to declination of annual influenza vaccination. Overall, 1835/2041 HCWs (89.9%) completed a consent or declination form; 1783 were vaccinated and 52 declined. Staff roles with minimal patient contact were significantly associated with lower vaccine uptake (adjusted odds ratio 0.48, 95% confidence interval 0.23-0.99). Reasons for vaccine refusal included personal choice (41%), previous side-effect/s (23.1%), and medical reasons (23.1%). Of these, a large proportion may not be amenable to intervention, and this must be considered in setting threshold targets for future campaigns.
澳大利亚一家癌症中心的医护人员(HCWs)使用自愿拒绝表方案进行了评估,以确定导致年度流感疫苗接种率下降的因素。总体而言,2041 名 HCWs 中有 1835 名(89.9%)完成了同意或拒绝表;1783 人接种了疫苗,52 人拒绝接种。与患者接触最少的员工角色与较低的疫苗接种率显著相关(调整后的优势比 0.48,95%置信区间 0.23-0.99)。拒绝接种疫苗的原因包括个人选择(41%)、先前的副作用/(23.1%)和医疗原因(23.1%)。其中,很大一部分可能无法通过干预解决,在为未来的疫苗接种活动设定阈值目标时必须考虑到这一点。
