To determine prevalence and factors associated with intention to get vaccinated against COVID-19 among older Brazilians.
This was a cross-sectional study based on telephone interviews with participants of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brazil) aged 60 years and over, conducted in 70 municipalities in March 2021.
Among the 4,364 participants (mean age = 70.1 years), 91.8% intended to get vaccinated or had already been vaccinated, 2.5% did not intend to get vaccinated and 5.7% were undecided. Participants living in the North and Southeast regions were more likely to want to get vaccinated, as were those with two or more chronic diseases. Those who learned about COVID-19 from friends/family/social media were more likely to be undecided about vaccination (odds ratio = 3.15; 95%CI 1.28;7.77).
The study identified one of the highest prevalence of intention to get vaccinated against COVID-19 described in the literature to date.
确定巴西老年人中新冠疫苗接种意愿的流行情况及其相关因素。
这是一项横断面研究,于2021年3月对巴西70个城市中年龄在60岁及以上的巴西老年纵向研究(ELSI - 巴西)参与者进行电话访谈。
在4364名参与者(平均年龄 = 70.1岁)中,91.8%打算接种疫苗或已经接种,2.5%不打算接种,5.7%尚未决定。居住在北部和东南部地区的参与者以及患有两种或更多种慢性病的参与者更有可能想要接种疫苗。那些通过朋友/家人/社交媒体了解新冠病毒的人对疫苗接种的态度更有可能犹豫不决(优势比 = 3.15;95%置信区间1.28;7.77)。
该研究确定了迄今为止文献中描述的新冠疫苗接种意愿的最高流行率之一。
