Abstract

Acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination of medical personnel reduces the spread of infection the research aimed to evaluate healthcare professionals' attitudes toward vaccination by the health belief model. A quantitative, cross-sectional research design was used for the study. Most medical personnel agreed to get the COVID-19 vaccination (84%; n=384). Medical workers over 45 (90%) showed more readiness for vaccination. The main pushbacks against the vaccination included the development of a vaccine in a short period (n=56; 73.7%), fear of side effects (n=49; 64.5%), lack of reliable information about vaccination (n=35; 46.1%), negative information spread by the media (n=26, 34.2%). Recommendations by healthcare workers (63.9%), health authorities (73.1), media (70%), large number of people being vaccinated (72.6%), and provision of trustworthy information (71.3%) facilitate vaccination. The high rate of COVID-19 vaccination among medical personnel shows that they have a high risk perception of infection. Among Health Belief Model components, cues to actions were most important in willingness to carry out vaccination. Recommendations of the WHO and scientists significantly influence the willingness to carry out vaccination. The regulatory responsibilities of the state and the public's trust in it play a crucial role in raising the population's awareness about the vaccine.
利用健康信念模型分析医护人员接种 COVID-19 疫苗的准备情况
大多数医务人员同意接种 COVID-19 疫苗(84%;n=384)。大多数医务人员同意接种 COVID-19(84%;n=384),45 岁以上的医务人员(90%)更愿意接种。反对接种的主要原因包括疫苗研发时间太短(56 人,占 73.7%)、担心副作用(49 人,占 64.5%)、缺乏可靠的接种信息(35 人,占 46.1%)、媒体传播的负面信息(26 人,占 34.2%)。医护人员的建议(63.9%)、卫生当局的建议(73.1%)、媒体的建议(70%)、接种人数众多(72.6%)以及提供可信信息(71.3%)都有助于疫苗接种。医务人员的 COVID-19 疫苗接种率很高,这表明他们对感染有很高的风险认知。在 "健康信念模型 "的各个组成部分中,行动提示对接种意愿最为重要。世界卫生组织和科学家的建议对接种意愿有重要影响。国家的监管责任和公众对国家的信任在提高人们对疫苗的认识方面起着至关重要的作用。
