Gap between cognitions and behaviors among children's guardians of influenza vaccination: The role of social influence and vaccine-related knowledge

Jing Wu et al.

Summary: Despite high willingness expressed by guardians, vaccine coverage for children against seasonal influenza remains suboptimal. This study aimed to determine the association between vaccine hesitancy and uptake, in order to bridge the gap. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among guardians of Chinese children aged 0-59 months using a stratified cluster random sampling method. A structural equation model was applied to explore the interrelationships between vaccine hesitancy, vaccination, social influence, and relative knowledge. The results showed a gap between cognitions and behaviors among guardians, with demographic variables and social influence playing significant roles. Emphasizing the benefits of vaccination, the risk of infection, and ensuring high vaccine confidence among healthcare workers can help increase vaccine uptake.

Determinants of vaccine refusal, delay and reluctance in parents of 2-year-old children in Canada: Findings from the 2017 Childhood National Immunization Coverage Survey (cNICS)

N. Schellenberg et al.

Summary: Vaccine hesitancy is a problem in improving childhood vaccination rates in Canada, and inconsistent measurement of vaccine uptake indicators makes it difficult to understand the extent of this problem. A study using 2017 data found that 16.8% of parents had refused a vaccine, with influenza being the most commonly refused. Female parents or those from Quebec or the territories were more likely to refuse. 12.8% of parents were hesitant about vaccines, but eventually accepted them based on healthcare provider advice. 13.1% had delayed vaccinations, often due to health issues or age, and this was more common in larger households. Recent immigrants were less likely to refuse, delay, or be hesitant, but after 10 years in Canada, their likelihood increased.

The Impact and Vaccination Coverage of Seasonal Influenza among Children Aged 6-59 Months in China in 2017-2018: An Internet Panel Survey

Hangjie Zhang et al.

Summary: The survey found that there were a high number of influenza cases among children in China and a low influenza vaccine coverage. The main reasons for not getting vaccinated were healthcare workers not recommending the vaccine, lack of knowledge about the vaccine, and lack of confidence in its effectiveness. The findings highlight the importance of awareness about influenza, hygienic behavior, and the effectiveness of the influenza vaccine among children and their family members.

Would Chinese Men Who Have Sex With Men Take Up Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Screening as an Alternative Prevention Strategy to HPV Vaccination?

Paul Shing-fong Chan et al.

Summary: Men who have sex with men (MSM) are at high risk for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a community-based organization (CBO)-private clinic service model in promoting HPV vaccination among MSM in Hong Kong, and found that the model had limited impact in increasing HPV screening among MSM. MSM in Hong Kong may not consider HPV screening as an alternative prevention strategy to HPV vaccination. Future programs should focus on promoting HPV vaccination among MSM to prevent HPV-related diseases.

Childhood Influenza Vaccination and Its Determinants during 2020-2021 Flu Seasons in China: A Cross-Sectional Survey

Kaiyi Han et al.

Summary: This study examined influenza vaccination coverage and factors influencing vaccination uptake among children in three Chinese provinces. The findings revealed that the province of residence, educational level, annual income, confidence in vaccine, and vaccine uptake among others were associated with childhood influenza vaccination. Furthermore, access to vaccination services also played a role in vaccination rates. To promote childhood influenza vaccination, public health information campaigns should target caregivers with lower education levels and increase accessibility to vaccination services, while encouraging healthcare workers to promote vaccination.

Parental Attitudes and Perceptions of Support after Brief Clinician Intervention Predict Intentions to Accept the Adjuvanted Seasonal Influenza Vaccination: Findings from the Pediatric Influenza Vaccination Optimization Trial (PIVOT)-I

William A. Fisher et al.

Summary: The attitudes and intentions of parents to vaccinate their infants with adjuvanted trivalent influenza vaccine are strongly correlated with their perception of vaccine safety, efficacy, and importance. The strength of clinician recommendation and social support also influence parental intentions to vaccinate. These findings are crucial for clinician education to ensure optimal seasonal pediatric influenza vaccination.

Yousef S. Khader et al.

Summary: The study focused on increasing parental registration of children's vaccination records through the CIMA app in refugee camps, while providing parenting skills under COVID-19-related stress. A total of 1100 children were enrolled in the program, with volunteers identifying 70 children with incomplete vaccination records. The scaling of the app was found to be feasible for dissemination of health information in challenging contexts like refugee camps.

Associated Factors of Behavioral Intention Regarding Childhood Influenza Vaccination Among Parents of Ever-Vaccinated and Never-Vaccinated 24-to 59-Month-Old Children in Hong Kong

Joseph T. F. Lau et al.

Summary: This study investigated the factors associated with parental intention for young children aged 24 to 59 months to receive influenza vaccination in Hong Kong, China. Factors such as perceived susceptibility, perceived benefit, perceived barrier, cue to action, subjective norm, and family members' vaccination status were found to be related to the parental intention for ever-vaccinated children, while only perceived benefit and subjective norm were significant for never-vaccinated children. The findings suggest that health promotion strategies should take into account the different factors influencing parental intention based on children's vaccination status.

Improving Influenza Vaccination in Children With Comorbidities: A Systematic Review

Daniel A. Norman et al.

Summary: Interventions targeting influenza vaccine coverage in children with medical comorbidities, such as vaccination reminders and education, as well as clinic process changes, have been shown to significantly improve vaccine coverage. However, no significant differences were detected between intervention types, and bias and study heterogeneity limit confidence in the estimate of this effect. Further well-designed studies are needed to inform optimal interventions in the future.

Seasonal influenza vaccine hesitancy profiles and determinants among Chinese children's guardians and the elderly

Zheng Wei et al.

Summary: The study found that the low seasonal influenza vaccine coverage in China is due to influenza vaccine hesitancy (IVH) and practical issues. Factors such as poor awareness of influenza and vaccination, relatives' negative/positive attitude, lack of government recommendations, anxiety about vaccine quality, and practical issues such as short supply are related to IVH in China. Precision education aimed at hesitancy in wider groups is anticipated to increase vaccine confidence and coverage in influenza-vulnerable groups.

Summary: The study aimed to assess parents' intentions towards influenza vaccination for themselves and their children in Switzerland during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results showed that there was an increase in parents' intention to vaccinate their children against influenza, especially in regions heavily impacted by COVID-19.
