Different vaccines have been approved for use against coronavirus disease and distributed globally in different regions. Efforts should be made on the vaccination to control the spread and impacts of the coronavirus pandemic. However, the general population's attitudes and intention to uptake coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccinations were poor.
This study aimed to assess the barriers to and intention to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and the associated factors among adults in the Jimma zone, Ethiopia.
A community-based cross-sectional study with multistage sampling was conducted with 621 participants from 16 April to 17 May 2022. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with the outcome of interest. Statistical p-value ≤0.05 was set at p ≤ 0.05. Qualitative data were supplemented with quantitative results.
The majority of the study participants (382 [61.5%]) intended to uptake the COVID-19 vaccine. In this study, travel history (Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) = 2.18, 95% CI 1.23-3.87), vaccination history (AOR = 2.64, 95% CI 1.69-4.12), perceptions of infection prevention for COVID-19 (AOR = 1.97, 95% CI 1.28-3.03), subjective norm (AOR = 2.27, 95% CI 1.52-3.39), and perceived behavioral control (PBC) (AOR = 2.30, 95% CI 1.55-3.41) were significantly associated with the intention to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
More than half of the adult participants intended to be vaccinated against COVID-19. The study participant's traveling history, vaccination history, perception of infection prevention for COVID-19, subjective norms, and Perceived Behavioral Control were significantly associated with the intention to be vaccinated.
不同的新冠疫苗已获批准使用，并在全球不同地区分发。应努力推进疫苗接种以控制新冠疫情的传播和影响。然而，普通民众对2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）疫苗接种的态度和意愿较差。
本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚吉马地区成年人接种COVID-19疫苗的障碍和意愿以及相关因素。
于2022年4月16日至5月17日对621名参与者进行了一项基于社区的多阶段抽样横断面研究。采用多变量逻辑回归来确定与感兴趣结果相关的因素。设定统计p值≤0.05为有统计学意义。定性数据辅以定量结果。
大多数研究参与者（382人[61.5%]）打算接种COVID-19疫苗。在本研究中，旅行史（调整优势比（AOR）=2.18，95%置信区间1.23 - 3.87）、疫苗接种史（AOR = 2.64，95%置信区间1.69 - 4.12）、对COVID-19感染预防的认知（AOR = 1.97，95%置信区间1.28 - 3.03）、主观规范（AOR = 2.27，95%置信区间1.52 - 3.39）和感知行为控制（PBC）（AOR = 2.30，95%置信区间1.55 - 3.41）与接种COVID-19疫苗的意愿显著相关。
超过一半的成年参与者打算接种COVID-19疫苗。研究参与者的旅行史、疫苗接种史、对COVID-19感染预防的认知、主观规范和感知行为控制与接种意愿显著相关。
