摘要

目的:要达到群体免疫,一定比例的人群必须接种疫苗。因此,疫苗接种计划的成功取决于接受程度。本研究旨在通过评估公众接种疫苗的意愿来了解尼日利亚对COVID-19疫苗的接受和犹豫。研究设计这是一项基于人群的横断面研究。数据是通过结构化的在线调查得出的。方法采用结构化在线问卷,于2021年3月在尼日利亚成年居民中进行了一项横断面研究。问卷调查了参与者对COVID-19和COVID-19疫苗的人口统计学特征和认知。采用卡方统计和单变量logistic回归进行描述性统计和推断性统计,以确定COVID-19疫苗接受度的相关因素。结果618名受访者中,有272人(44%)表示愿意接种疫苗。有趣的是,在346名(56%)不愿接种新冠疫苗的受访者中,不接受疫苗的最高边际原因是对政府缺乏信任163名(47.1%),其次是认为疫苗不安全67名(19.4%),疫苗信息不足49名(13.6%)。此外,男性受访者和大学及以上学历的受访者接受COVID-19疫苗的可能性在统计学上显著增加。结论相当比例的研究人群不愿接种COVID-19疫苗。这一观察结果凸显了政府、公共卫生官员和倡导团体需要立即采取提高认识措施,以说服公众接受COVID-19疫苗。

Do we trust the government? Attributes of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and acceptance in Nigeria
Objectives A significant percentage of the population must be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity. Therefore the success of a vaccination program relies on the level of acceptance. This present study seeks to understand COVID-19 vaccine acceptance and hesitancy in Nigeria by assessing the public's willingness to get vaccinated. Study design This is a population-based cross-sectional study. Data were derived through a structured online survey. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among adult residents in Nigeria in March 2021 using a structured online questionnaire. The questionnaire surveyed participants' demographic characteristics and perception of COVID-19 and the COVID-19 vaccine. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics using Chi-square, as well as univariable logistic regression to determine the factors associated with acceptance of COVID-19 vaccine was conducted. Results Of the 618 respondents, 272 (44%) reported being willing to get vaccinated. Interestingly, of the 346 (56%) respondents that would not take the COVID-19 vaccine, the highest marginal reasons for non-acceptance were lack of trust in the government 163 (47.1%), followed by the belief that the vaccine is not safe 67 (19.4%), and no enough information about the vaccine 49 (13.6%). In addition, male respondents and those with a university degree or above were statistically significantly more likely to accept a COVID-19 vaccine. Conclusion A considerable proportion of the study population is unwilling to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. This observation highlights the need for the government, public health officials, and advocacy groups to implement immediate awareness-raising measures to sway the public towards COVID-19 vaccine acceptance.
