Yosor Alqudeimat et al.

Summary: The study found that 53.1% of adults in Kuwait were willing to accept a COVID-19 vaccine. Men were more willing than women, those with health-related risk perceptions regarding vaccines were less willing, and individuals who had previously received an influenza vaccine were more likely to accept a COVID-19 vaccine. Willingness to receive the COVID-19 vaccine increased with perceived risk of infection.

Psychological characteristics associated with COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and resistance in Ireland and the United Kingdom

Jamie Murphy et al.

Summary: Identifying and understanding COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy within distinct populations may aid future public health messaging. Using nationally representative data from the general adult populations of Ireland and the UK, the study found differences in vaccine hesitancy/resistance between the two countries but similarities in psychological constructs among resistant respondents. Vaccine-resistant individuals in both populations were less likely to obtain information from traditional and authoritative sources and had similar levels of mistrust in these sources compared to vaccine-accepting individuals.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic may not end globally until vaccines that protect against severe disease and drive herd immunity are widely distributed. While vaccines have been authorized for human use in many countries, achieving global control of COVID-19 requires not only licensed vaccines but also mass production, affordable pricing, global allocation, and wide local deployment.

Summary: The study found that Polish healthcare workers are more willing to be vaccinated against COVID-19, but there are concerns about long-term side effects and the impact of depression on vaccination willingness. Positive medical history of recommended vaccinations, fear of infection, and fear of passing on the disease to relatives can strengthen the readiness to be vaccinated, but overall vaccination desire needs to be improved.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the acceptability of a COVID-19 vaccine among healthcare workers in Saudi Arabia and factors influencing their intention to accept the vaccine. Male healthcare workers, perceiving a high risk of infection, and believing the COVID-19 vaccine should be compulsory for all citizens and residents in the country were associated with a higher probability of intention to vaccinate and accept the vaccine sooner. The study concluded by calling for more health-related education among healthcare workers to address any fears associated with the COVID-19 vaccine.

Monitoring COVID-19 Vaccine Acceptance in Kuwait During the Pandemic: Results from a National Serial Study

Eiman Al Awadhi et al.

Summary: Research shows that vaccine acceptance among citizens and non-citizens in Kuwait declined over time during the COVID-19 pandemic. Factors such as increased frequency of informing oneself about the virus, confidence in doctors, agreement with containment policies, fears and worries, and perceived likelihood of getting infected with influenza were associated with higher odds of accepting the vaccine. However, increased age, being female, and not taking the influenza vaccine in 2019 were associated with decreased odds of acceptance.

The Nature and Extent of COVID-19 Vaccination Hesitancy in Healthcare Workers

Nirbachita Biswas et al.

Summary: COVID-19 vaccines have been approved for public use globally, but studies show healthcare workers globally exhibit vaccine hesitancy due to concerns about safety, efficacy, and side effects. Males, older individuals, and those with doctoral degrees (i.e., physicians) are more likely to accept vaccines, and factors like perceived risk, patient care involvement, and influenza vaccination history increase vaccine uptake likelihood. Strategies to improve communication, education, and mandates for clinical workers are crucial to address the high prevalence of vaccine hesitancy in healthcare workers. Healthcare workers play a key role in pandemic mitigation, serving as role models for preventive behaviors and facilitating vaccination efforts.
