RATIONALE
Vaccinating children against COVID-19 is critical to contain the ongoing pandemic.
AIMS/OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to assess parents' and caregivers' intention to vaccinate their 5-11 years old children against COVID-19 and to estimate the association between vaccination intention and sociodemographic, clinical and contextual factors.
METHOD
We conducted a questionnaire-based survey on a convenience sample of parents in Patras, Western Greece.
RESULTS
Out of 366 study participants, around 48% reported their intention to vaccinate their child. The main factors associated with positive attitudes were paediatrician recommendation, parental vaccination, and reliance on the healthcare providers for decision making. Of note, 80% of the 190 parents who did not intend to vaccinate their children would vaccinate them if the paediatrician recommended it.
CONCLUSION
Interventions to further train healthcare professionals to establish rapport with parents, and to provide adequate information about vaccinations are crucial to address concerns related to COVID-19 vaccine benefits for children.
背景
为儿童接种 COVID-19 疫苗对于控制当前大流行至关重要。
目的
本研究旨在评估父母和照顾者为其 5-11 岁儿童接种 COVID-19 疫苗的意愿，并估计接种意愿与社会人口学、临床和背景因素之间的关系。
方法
我们在希腊西部帕特雷市进行了一项基于问卷调查的便利抽样研究。
结果
在 366 名研究参与者中，约有 48%表示他们有意愿为孩子接种疫苗。与积极态度相关的主要因素包括儿科医生的建议、父母的接种情况以及在决策时依赖医疗保健提供者。值得注意的是，如果儿科医生建议，190 名不打算为孩子接种疫苗的父母中有 80%会为孩子接种疫苗。
结论
进一步培训医疗保健专业人员以建立与父母的融洽关系，并提供有关疫苗接种的充分信息的干预措施对于解决与儿童 COVID-19 疫苗益处相关的问题至关重要。
