Individual and Work-Related Characteristics Associated with COVID-19 Vaccination Status among Ohio Nurses

Jin Jun et al.

Summary: In this study, the COVID-19 vaccine uptake among nurses was found to be low. Factors such as older age, higher education levels, and working in critical care were associated with higher vaccination rates. Additionally, providing direct care for COVID-19 patients and perceiving a higher impact of COVID-19 on one's work were positively associated with vaccination, while prior COVID-19 infection was negatively associated with vaccination status.
