摘要

关于COVID和疫苗的错误信息在危地马拉猖獗。社区领导人需要了解公众对这一流行病的看法，以便为有效的干预措施提供信息。因此，210名非专业助产士参加了11个焦点小组。与会者分享了其家庭和社区对COVID-19和疫苗的知识、做法和态度。出现了五个主题。关于疫苗的误解比比皆是。危地马拉人使用传统疗法治疗COVID，相信上帝能治愈他们，不信任医院护理。该病毒对城市的影响大于农村地区。将文化观点与现代信息相结合将在危地马拉人之间建立关于COVID-19的信任。

The lived experience of guatemalan lay midwives' interaction with communities and families regarding COVID and the vaccine.

Misinformation about COVID and the vaccine are rampant in Guatemala. Insights are needed from community leaders regarding public perceptions of the pandemic to inform effective interventions. Thus, 210 lay midwives participated in 11 focus groups. Participants shared the knowledge, practices, and attitudes of their families and communities about COVID-19 and the vaccine. Five themes emerged. Myths about the vaccine abound. Guatemalans use traditional remedies to treat COVID, have faith in God to cure them, and mistrust hospital care. The virus impacted cities more than rural areas. Integrating cultural viewpoints with modern information would build trust among Guatemalans regarding COVID-19.
