Summary: This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify maternal background, medical and gynecological characteristics associated with COVID-19 vaccination likelihood among pregnant women. The study found that younger age, lower socioeconomic score, being Bedouin Arab, poor obstetric history, recurrent pregnancy loss, and insufficient prenatal care were associated with lower vaccination rates. The study also observed differences in risk factors between different ethnicities.

Summary: This systematic review evaluates the training needs of healthcare workers (HCWs) in vaccination and vaccine uptake. The majority of the studies highlight the importance of improving HCWs' knowledge in vaccine-preventable diseases, vaccine efficacy, immunization schedules, and vaccine adverse effects. It is crucial to address the diverse educational backgrounds, roles, and training requirements of HCWs involved in vaccination across Europe for future initiatives.

Summary: Each injection of any known vaccine leads to strong expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, as a result of innate immune system activation. The degree of inflammation caused by COVID-19 mRNA vaccines varies, depending on genetic background and previous immune experiences. We propose that the increasing expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines after vaccination can result in multisystem hyperinflammatory syndromes. By correlating time and degree of inflammation, we can understand the complexity of clinical manifestations.

Summary: The present study investigates the reasons for vaccine hesitancy among those who have not been vaccinated in the later stage of the vaccine rollout in Spain. Cluster and logistic regression analyses were conducted using two samples of unvaccinated individuals, revealing that the main reasons for not being vaccinated were concerns about the speed of vaccine development, experimental nature, and safety. The analysis further identified two clusters, with individuals in Cluster 2 showing lower trust in health professionals' information, lower willingness to get vaccinated in the future, and fewer avoidances of social/family events compared to Cluster 1. Promoting reliable information and addressing misinformation and myths through information campaigns is crucial. These findings can guide strategies to increase vaccination uptake among those who are hesitant about the COVID-19 vaccine.

Summary: Extensive research has been conducted on the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy, despite pregnant women being excluded from initial clinical trials. Scientific publications have confirmed the safety of mRNA vaccines during pregnancy and breastfeeding, although studies on their effect on fertility are limited. This article discusses current recommendations, ethical issues, legislative paradoxes, and legal consequences of harm to the unborn child due to vaccination in accordance with medical ethics and national legislation.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the perceptions and intentions of pregnant women towards COVID-19 vaccination and explored reasons for vaccine hesitancy. The results showed that unvaccinated pregnant women had less discussion about vaccination, less awareness of the priority for pregnant women to receive the vaccine, and less knowledge about the increased risk of severe illness during pregnancy compared to vaccinated women. Unvaccinated women expressed concerns about the vaccine's side effects on their newborns and their own health, insufficient safety information during pregnancy, and the perception that the low community transmission in Western Australia reduced the necessity for vaccination. Education of healthcare professionals and pregnant women is necessary to address vaccine delay and hesitancy.

While there are no official reports of alterations of the menstrual cycle or female reproductive system following the vaccine, clinical experience suggests the occurrence of temporary adverse reactions to the menstrual cycle after administration of all COVID-19 vaccine types. A retrospective study in Italy found that symptoms such as delayed menstruation and abnormal uterine bleeding were generally reported within the first three weeks of vaccination, particularly after the second dose.

The study also explores the moderating effects of partisan information flow on the relationship between ideology and these factors. Results show that conservatives are less likely to intend to get vaccinated against COVID-19, and this association is significantly influenced by perceived effectiveness and side effects of the vaccine, as well as perceived severity of the illness. The study also finds that the partisanship of news sources and discussion partners can moderate conservatives' perception of vaccine effectiveness.
