OBJECTIVES
Hesitance and resistance to COVID-19 vaccination poses a serious challenge to achieving adequate vaccine uptake in the general population. Cross-sectional data from the early months of the pandemic indicates that approximately one-third of adults in multiple nations are hesitant or resistant to a vaccine for COVID-19. Using longitudinal data, we tracked changes in attitudes to COVID-19 vaccination during the pandemic.
STUDY DESIGN
This is a quantitative, longitudinal design.
METHOD
Nationally representative samples of the adult general population of the Republic of Ireland (N = 1041) and the United Kingdom (N = 2025) were assessed for their attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination at three points from March to August 2020.
RESULTS
Statistically significant increases in resistance to COVID-19 vaccination were observed in Irish (from 9.5% to 18.1%) and British (from 6.2% to 10%) adults.
CONCLUSION
Resistance to vaccination has significantly increased in two European nations as the pandemic has progressed. Growing resistance to COVID-19 vaccination will pose a challenge to public health officials responsible for ensuring sufficient vaccine coverage.
目的
对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的犹豫和抵触，对实现普通人群中足够的疫苗接种率构成了严重挑战。大流行早期的横断面数据表明，多个国家约有三分之一的成年人对 COVID-19 疫苗犹豫不决或持反对态度。本研究使用纵向数据，跟踪了大流行期间人们对 COVID-19 疫苗接种态度的变化。
研究设计
这是一项定量、纵向设计。
方法
对爱尔兰共和国（N=1041）和英国（N=2025）成年普通人群的全国代表性样本，在 2020 年 3 月至 8 月的三个时间点，评估他们对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的态度。
结果
在爱尔兰（从 9.5%增加到 18.1%）和英国（从 6.2%增加到 10%）成年人中，对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的抵触显著增加。
结论
随着大流行的进展，两个欧洲国家对疫苗接种的抵制明显增加。对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的抵制增加，将对负责确保足够疫苗接种率的公共卫生官员构成挑战。
