BACKGROUND
Acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccine will play a major role in combating the pandemic. Healthcare workers (HCWs) are among the first group to receive vaccination, so it is important to consider their attitudes about COVID-19 vaccination to better address barriers to widespread vaccination acceptance.
METHODS
We conducted a cross sectional study to assess the attitude of HCWs toward COVID-19 vaccination. Data were collected between 7 October and 9 November 2020. We received 4080 responses out of which 3479 were complete responses and were included in the final analysis.
RESULTS
36% of respondents were willing to take the vaccine as soon as it became available while 56% were not sure or would wait to review more data. Only 8% of HCWs do not plan to get vaccine. Vaccine acceptance increased with increasing age, education, and income level. A smaller percentage of female (31%), Black (19%), Lantinx (30%), and rural (26%) HCWs were willing to take the vaccine as soon as it became available than the overall study population. Direct medical care providers had higher vaccine acceptance (49%). Safety (69%), effectiveness (69%), and speed of development/approval (74%) were noted as the most common concerns regarding COVID-19 vaccination in our survey.
背景
接受新冠疫苗接种将在抗击疫情中发挥重要作用。医护人员是首批接种疫苗的群体之一，因此了解他们对新冠疫苗接种的态度对于更好地解决广泛接种疫苗的障碍至关重要。
方法
我们开展了一项横断面研究，以评估医护人员对新冠疫苗接种的态度。数据收集于2020年10月7日至11月9日期间。我们共收到4080份回复，其中3479份为完整回复并纳入最终分析。
结果
36%的受访者表示疫苗一旦可用就愿意接种，56%的受访者不确定或会等待查看更多数据。只有8%的医护人员不打算接种疫苗。疫苗接受度随年龄、教育程度和收入水平的提高而增加。与总体研究人群相比，女性医护人员（31%）、黑人医护人员（19%）、拉丁裔医护人员（30%）和农村医护人员（26%）中愿意在疫苗一旦可用时就接种的比例较小。直接医疗服务提供者的疫苗接受度较高（49%）。在我们的调查中，安全性（69%）、有效性（69%）以及研发/批准速度（74%）被指出是对新冠疫苗接种最常见的担忧。
