Vaccines to prevent COVID-19: A living systematic review with Trial Sequential Analysis and network meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials

Steven Kwasi Korang et al.

Summary: This study assessed the effectiveness and safety of COVID-19 vaccines through analyses of randomized clinical trials. The findings suggest that all included vaccines are effective in preventing COVID-19, with mRNA vaccines being most effective in prevention and viral vector vaccines being most effective in reducing mortality. However, further trials and longer follow-up are needed to better understand the safety profile of these vaccines.

Summary: The study revealed that over half of healthcare workers in the UAE were willing to take COVID-19 vaccines, primarily driven by concerns for their families contracting the virus and a sense of social responsibility. Reasons for refusal included worries about side effects. Factors such as gender, receiving influenza vaccines, and concerns about vaccine safety data were found to influence vaccine acceptance among healthcare workers.

Global COVID-19 Vaccine Acceptance: A Systematic Review of Associated Social and Behavioral Factors

Choudhary Sobhan Shakeel et al.

Summary: This systematic review examined COVID-19 vaccine acceptance and hesitancy rates across different countries and continents. The analysis of 81 peer-reviewed publications showed global variations in vaccine acceptance, with the highest rates found in Ecuador, Malaysia, and Indonesia, and the lowest rates in Lebanon. Healthcare workers in China and nurses in Italy had the highest acceptance rates, while healthcare workers in the Democratic Republic of Congo had the lowest acceptance. The reasons behind vaccine hesitancy and acceptance were found to be similar across different regions, including low levels of education and awareness, inefficient government efforts, and misinformation on social media.

Intention to Receive the COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Dose in a University Community in Italy

Lucio Folcarelli et al.

Summary: This study investigated the willingness to receive the booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine among individuals who had completed the primary vaccination series in a hospital in Naples, Italy. The results showed that the majority of respondents were willing to receive the booster dose. Females and individuals without a cohabitant had a higher perceived risk of infection. Older respondents, those who perceived improved health status after the primary vaccination, those with friends or family members diagnosed with COVID-19, those who received information from official government organizations, and those who did not need additional information were more willing to get the booster dose. However, a minority of respondents hesitated to receive the booster dose, especially those who reported a lower health status after the primary vaccination, those without friends or family members diagnosed with COVID-19, those who did not receive information from official government organizations, and those who needed additional information. Information and communication regarding the benefits and efficacy of the booster dose are important to control the pandemic.

COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Hesitancy (VBH) and Its Drivers in Algeria: National Cross-Sectional Survey-Based Study

Mohamed Lounis et al.

Summary: This study investigated the acceptance of COVID-19 vaccine boosters and the factors associated with it in the general population of Algeria. The results showed that over half of the respondents accepted the booster, but only a small percentage actually received it. The main reasons for acceptance were expert recommendations and belief in the necessity and efficacy of booster doses, while rejection was mainly due to the belief that primer doses were sufficient or a lack of trust in the effectiveness of vaccines. Males, older individuals, those with chronic comorbidities or a history of COVID-19 infection, non-healthcare workers, and those with low educational levels were more likely to accept the booster.

Summary: This study investigates the psychological and social factors influencing the willingness to receive a COVID-19 vaccine booster in China. The results show that younger age, female gender, higher education, good health status, and higher vaccine confidence are associated with a higher willingness. Additionally, experiencing no side effects with the primary vaccination, higher perceived susceptibility of COVID-19 infection, no chronic diseases, lower perceived concern over the safety of a booster shot, and higher institutional trust are also associated with greater willingness. The study highlights the importance of psychosocial factors in predicting vaccine booster acceptance and provides insight for targeted interventions.

Summary: The study found that two doses of vaccine provide high protection against the Alpha and Delta variants, but the protection wanes over time, especially against infection. However, two doses of vaccine offer limited and short-lived protection against the Omicron variant. The third vaccine dose significantly increases the level and duration of protection against Omicron infection and provides sustained high-level protection against COVID-19 hospitalization among those aged 60 and above.

Summary: This study examines the intentions and decision-making process regarding COVID-19 vaccine boosters among a university population. The findings suggest that a significant percentage of participants changed their minds between their initial intention and final decision. Health literacy and previous intentions regarding the COVID-19 primal vaccination were related to the intentions, while factors such as previous COVID-19 infection, past intentions for primal vaccination, and neutralizing antibody levels influenced the decision not to get vaccinated. These results highlight the importance of personalized approaches to decision-making for individuals.

Summary: This study explores the factors associated with vaccine hesitancy and uptake among adults in Hong Kong before and after the COVID-19 vaccination program. The findings show that the levels of vaccine hesitancy varied over time. It was observed that individuals with chronic medical conditions were more likely to be hesitant two to five months after the program implementation. Confidence in the government and in COVID-19 vaccines were associated with lower vaccine hesitancy at different stages of the program. This study emphasizes the importance of monitoring temporal changes in vaccine hesitancy and adjusting promotion strategies accordingly to increase vaccination uptake.
