OBJECTIVE
Colleges are potential hotspots for transmission of SARS-CoV-2 due to lower immunization rates and possible close contacts among young adults. Some universities have implemented policies mandating COVID-19 vaccination; however, their effects remain uncertain. We estimated COVID-19 vaccination rates with and without university-mandated vaccination policies.
PARTICIPANTS
A university-wide survey was conducted among 2,011 students.
METHODS
Students completed an online questionnaire on sociodemographics, COVID-19 vaccine status, and vaccine intention.
RESULTS
Without university vaccine mandates, 76% of students would receive a COVID-19 vaccination, and with vaccine mandates, more than 82% of students would receive vaccination. Despite this improvement, we observed fewer changes in vaccine coverage for certain subgroups of students, indicating these policies could exacerbate ongoing disparities in COVID-19 vaccination rates.
CONCLUSIONS
COVID-19 vaccine mandates on campuses are likely to increase vaccination rates modestly. However, interventions will likely be required to supplement vaccine mandates.
目的
由于大学生群体的免疫率较低，且年轻人之间可能存在密切接触，高校成为了 SARS-CoV-2 传播的潜在热点地区。一些大学已经制定了 COVID-19 疫苗接种政策；然而，其效果仍不确定。本研究旨在评估有无大学强制接种政策下 COVID-19 疫苗的接种率。
参与者
对 2011 名学生进行了一项全校范围的调查。
方法
学生们通过在线问卷回答了人口统计学、COVID-19 疫苗接种状况和疫苗接种意愿等问题。
结果
如果没有大学疫苗接种规定，76%的学生会接种 COVID-19 疫苗，而有疫苗接种规定时，超过 82%的学生会接种疫苗。尽管有了这种改善，但我们观察到某些学生群体的疫苗接种覆盖率变化较小，这表明这些政策可能会加剧 COVID-19 疫苗接种率方面的现有差距。
结论
校园内的 COVID-19 疫苗接种规定可能会适度提高疫苗接种率。然而，可能需要采取干预措施来补充疫苗接种规定。
