A worldwide vaccination programme is the chosen strategy against the COVID-19 pandemic. Vaccine hesitancy, however, forms a threat to achieving a high degree of vaccination. Healthcare workers (HCWs) are exposed to greater risks, in addition to HCWs who care for people with intellectual disabilities (ID). However, little is still known about these groups' vaccine hesitancy. This review aims to provide insight into the intentions and attitudes of HCWs on COVID-19 vaccination, including those who care for people with ID. The search included both types and was conducted in nine databases. A total of 26 papers were identified concerning the vaccine intentions of 43,199 HCWs worldwide. The data were gathered both quantitively and qualitatively. The papers were analysed for all of the themes regarding vaccine intentions, which were: (1) percentages of vaccine willingness; (2) predictors of willingness; (3) attitudes of willingness and hesitancy; (4) sources of vaccination information; (5) contextual factors and changes in COVID-19 vaccine acceptance over time; and (6) future strategies for interventions. Concerns about vaccine safety, efficacy and short- and long-term side effects were the most prominent in HCWs and, therefore, should be addressed in future intervention strategies. Furthermore, interactive interventions are recommended to facilitate exchange, and accurate information should be accessible to target groups on social media platforms.
全球疫苗接种计划是应对 COVID-19 大流行的首选策略。然而，疫苗犹豫构成了实现高疫苗接种率的威胁。除了照顾智障人士的医护人员外，医护人员（HCWs）面临更大的风险。然而，对于这些群体的疫苗犹豫情绪，我们知之甚少。本综述旨在深入了解 HCWs 对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的意愿和态度，包括照顾智障人士的 HCWs。搜索包括定性和定量两种方法，在九个数据库中进行。共确定了 26 篇关于全球 43199 名 HCWs 疫苗接种意愿的论文。这些数据是通过定量和定性方法收集的。对所有关于疫苗接种意愿的主题进行了分析，这些主题包括：（1）疫苗接种意愿的百分比；（2）意愿的预测因素；（3）意愿和犹豫的态度；（4）疫苗接种信息来源；（5）随着时间的推移，与 COVID-19 疫苗接种接受度相关的背景因素和变化；（6）未来干预策略。疫苗安全性、有效性以及短期和长期副作用的担忧是 HCWs 中最突出的问题，因此应该在未来的干预策略中加以解决。此外，建议采取互动式干预措施来促进交流，并在社交媒体平台上为目标群体提供准确的信息。
