摘要

背景:医护人员 (HCW) 对 COVID-19 疫苗的接受程度会影响普通人群对其的接受程度。目的:评估也门萨那医护人员对 COVD-19 疫苗的接受程度。方法:我们于 2022 年 1 月至 3 月在也门萨那对 391 名医护人员进行了一项多中心横断面研究。我们使用自填式问卷收集了关于医护人员的人口统计学、职业、学历和经验以及他们对 COVID-19 疫苗的接受度或犹豫度的数据。我们使用单变量和多变量逻辑回归分析了自变量与疫苗接种犹豫之间的关系(P < 0.05)。结果显示在 391 名医护人员中,只有 194 人(49.6%)愿意接受 COVID-19 疫苗。疫苗犹豫不决的最常见原因是担心不良反应(77.7%)、担心疫苗将来的未知影响(73.1%)以及对新疫苗安全性的不确定性(69.5%)。女性性别和在公共部门工作是医护人员对疫苗犹豫不决的独立预测因素。结论也门萨那近一半的医护人员愿意接受 COVID-19 疫苗。女性性别和在公共卫生部门工作是疫苗犹豫不决的独立预测因素。我们建议进一步开展研究,比较也门公共和私营部门的医护人员对 COVID-19 的接受程度。

COVID-19 vaccine acceptability among healthcare workers in Yemen
Background: Acceptability of COVID-19 vaccine by healthcare workers (HCWs) can affect its acceptability by the general population. Aim: To assess COVD-19 vaccine acceptability among HCWs in Sana’a, Yemen. Methods: We conducted a multicentre cross-sectional study among 391 HCWs in Sana’a, Yemen, from January to March 2022. We used a self-administered questionnaire to collect data on the demographics, profession, academic qualifications, and experience of HCWs, as well as their COVID-19 vaccine acceptability or hesitancy. We used univariate and multivariable logistic regression to analyse the association between the independent variables and vaccine hesitancy (P < 0.05). Results: Of the 391 HCWs, only 194 (49.6%) were willing to accept the COVID-19 vaccine. The most frequent reasons for vaccine hesitancy were fear of adverse reactions (77.7%), concerns about unknown effects of the vaccine in the future (73.1%), and uncertainty about the safety of new vaccines (69.5%). Female gender and working in the public sector were independent predictors of vaccine hesitancy among the HCWs. Conclusion: Nearly half of the HCWs in Sana’a, Yemen, were willing to accept the COVID-19 vaccine. Female gender and working in the public health sector were independent predictors of vaccine hesitancy. We recommend further studies to compare COVID-19 acceptability among HCWs in the public and private sectors in Yemen.
