Risk factors for excess all-cause mortality during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in England: A retrospective cohort study of primary care data

Iain M. Carey et al.

Summary: The study identified factors such as age, non-white ethnicity, obesity, cognitive impairment, learning disabilities, severe mental illness, and place of residence that were closely associated with excess mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic in England. In contrast, gender did not show a significant association. While some comorbidities led to a decrease in excess mortality rates, they still remained higher than usual levels.

Vaccination uptake amongst older adults from minority ethnic backgrounds: A systematic review

Cini Bhanu et al.

Summary: This systematic review and convergent synthesis examined perceptions of vaccinations amongst older adults from minority ethnic backgrounds, identifying factors influencing vaccination uptake including healthcare provider and system factors, patient factors, and policy and operational factors. The evidence suggests a tailored, multi-level approach combining education, access, and culturally competent discussions with trusted healthcare professionals can maximize the impact of vaccination policies.

SARS-CoV-2 vaccine uptake in a multi-ethnic UK healthcare workforce: A cross-sectional study

Christopher A. Martin et al.

Summary: This study found that ethnic minority healthcare workers, younger staff, females, pregnant healthcare workers, those living in more deprived areas, and those with a history of COVID-19 were less likely to take up SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Targeted interventions should be considered to improve vaccine uptake in these groups to prevent the widening disparities of the pandemic.

Clinical outcomes and risk factors for COVID-19 among migrant populations in high-income countries: A systematic review

Sally E. Hayward et al.

Summary: Migrants in high-income countries are at increased risk of exposure to and infection with COVID-19, with disproportionate representation among cases and specific predisposing risk factors. Urgent attention is needed on gathering robust data on testing uptake and clinical outcomes in migrants, as well as barriers and facilitators to COVID-19 vaccination, in order to strengthen engagement with diverse migrant groups in public health and policy responses to the pandemic.

Attitudes towards vaccines and intention to vaccinate against COVID-19: Implications for public health communications

Elise Paul et al.

Summary: This study identified predictors of negative attitudes towards vaccines and unwillingness to receive a COVID-19 vaccine among UK adults, with low-income groups, those who did not receive a flu vaccine last year, poor adherence to COVID-19 guidelines, female gender, and living with children being the most significant predictors of vaccine refusal. High levels of mistrust in vaccine benefit and concerns about future side effects were the most important determinants of vaccine uncertainty and unwillingness to vaccinate against COVID-19.
