COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among health care workers in Africa: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Martin Ackah et al.

Summary: This study reviewed COVID-19 vaccine acceptance rate and reasons for non-acceptance/hesitancy among Health Care Workers (HCWs) in Africa. The results showed generally low acceptance of the vaccine among HCWs across Africa. The major reasons for hesitancy were the side effects of the vaccine, vaccine's safety, efficacy and effectiveness, short duration of the clinical trials, COVID-19 infections, limited information, and social trust.

COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among medical students

Victoria C. Lucia et al.

Summary: Medical students generally have positive attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines, but some are hesitant to participate in vaccine trials or get vaccinated immediately. Students willing to get vaccinated right away are more likely to trust public health experts and have fewer concerns about side effects, while concerns about serious side effects are associated with lower intent to participate in vaccine trials.

COVID-19 vaccine acceptance and hesitancy in low- and middle-income countries

Julio S. Solis Arce et al.

Summary: The acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines in LMICs is higher compared to the United States and Russia, with a focus on personal protection and concerns about side effects. Healthcare workers are the most trusted sources of guidance in LMICs for COVID-19 vaccines, suggesting that prioritizing vaccine distribution to these countries could help advance global immunization coverage.

COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among healthcare workers

Christophe Paris et al.

Summary: The study found differences in healthcare workers' intention to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at the beginning of the vaccination campaign in France, with factors such as age, occupation, history of flu vaccine, and controversy over the tolerability of the AstraZeneca vaccine influencing this. Media communication has a significant impact on vaccine hesitancy, highlighting the need to better inform healthcare workers about the risk/benefit balance of COVID-19 vaccines.

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.
