This paper aimed to describe acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccine and its determinants among Vietnamese teachers.
This was a web-based cross-sectional survey with a sample of 17,176 teachers from kindergarten to high school who currently reside in Vietnam. A participant who exhibited "acceptance" towards the vaccine gave the following response: .
About 88% of all participants were accepting of the COVID-19 vaccine, while 70.4% were willing to pay (WTP) for it. The vaccine acceptance rate increased by age with odds ratios (OR) of 1.65 (1.41-1.93), 1.96 (1.67-2.29), and 2.4 (1.95-2.95) for the age groups 30-39, 40-49, and 50-59 respectively, when compared to the 18-29 age group. Male were found to be more likely to accept the vaccination than females (OR = 1.16; 95% CI: 1.02-1.31); teachers without a chronic disease were 4.13 times (95% CI: 2.67-6.37) more likely to accept the vaccine than those with an underlying condition. Willingness to pay and beliefs about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine were major factors in driving participants' responses.
A high proportion of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance is a promising indicator of high coverage among this priority group for vaccination. Communication campaigns should consider addressing determinants uncovered by this study to achieve better vaccine acceptance.
本文旨在描述越南教师对新冠疫苗的接受情况及其决定因素。
这是一项基于网络的横断面调查，样本为17176名目前居住在越南的从幼儿园到高中的教师。对疫苗表现出“接受”的参与者给出了以下回答：
所有参与者中约88%接受新冠疫苗，而70.4%愿意为之付费。与18 - 29岁年龄组相比，疫苗接受率随年龄增长而上升，30 - 39岁、40 - 49岁和50 - 59岁年龄组的优势比（OR）分别为1.65（1.41 - 1.93）、1.96（1.67 - 2.29）和2.4（1.95 - 2.95）。发现男性比女性更有可能接受疫苗接种（OR = 1.16；95%置信区间：1.02 - 1.31）；没有慢性病的教师接受疫苗的可能性是有基础疾病教师的4.13倍（95%置信区间：2.67 - 6.37）。付费意愿以及对疫苗安全性和有效性的信念是推动参与者做出回应的主要因素。
新冠疫苗的高接受比例是该优先接种群体中高覆盖率的一个有希望的指标。宣传活动应考虑解决本研究中发现的决定因素，以实现更好的疫苗接受度。
