ABSTRACT

Background

Acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccine by the target groups would play a crucial role in stemming the pandemic. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) are the priority group for vaccination due to them having the highest risk of exposure to infection. This survey aimed to assess their acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines in Bangladesh.

Research design and methods

A cross-sectional survey using an online questionnaire was conducted between January 3 to 25, 2021, among HCPs (n = 834) in Bangladesh.

Results

Less than 50% of HCPs would receive the vaccine against COVID-19 if available and 54% were willing to take the vaccine at some stage in the future. Female participants (OR:1.64;95%CI:1.172–2.297), respondents between 18–34 years old (OR:2.42; 95% CI:1.314–4.463), HCPs in the public sector (OR:2.09; 95% CI:1.521–2.878), and those who did not receive a flu vaccine in the previous year (OR:3.1; 95% CI:1.552–6.001) were more likely to delay vaccination.

Conclusions

The study revealed that, if available, less than half of the HCPs would accept a COVID-19 vaccine in Bangladesh. To ensure the broader success of the vaccination drive, tailored strategies and vaccine promotion campaigns targeting HCPs and the general population are needed.

在孟加拉国全国疫苗分发前夕，医疗保健专业人员对 COVID-19 疫苗的接受率不成比例

摘要

背景

目标群体接受 COVID-19 疫苗将在遏制大流行方面发挥关键作用。医疗保健专业人员 (HCP) 是接种疫苗的优先群体，因为他们接触感染的风险最高。本次调查旨在评估孟加拉国对 COVID-19 疫苗的接受程度。

研究设计和方法

2021 年 1 月 3 日至 25 日期间，对孟加拉国的 HCP（n = 834）进行了使用在线问卷的横断面调查。

结果

如果可用，不到 50% 的 HCP 将接种针对 COVID-19 的疫苗，而 54% 愿意在未来某个阶段接种疫苗。女性参与者（OR：1.64；95%CI：1.172–2.297），18–34 岁之间的受访者（OR：2.42；95% CI：1.314–4.463），公共部门的 HCP（OR：2.09；95% CI :1.521–2.878)，而那些在上一年未接种流感疫苗的人 (OR:3.1; 95% CI:1.552–6.001) 更有可能推迟接种疫苗。
