“…However, considering the results of many studies that skipping breakfast is significantly associated with poor health lifestyles, it was not surprising that, among asthma adolescents, the vaccinated group had a higher proportion of regular breakfast eaters than did the nonvaccinated group. Regarding the subjective health state, previous studies have revealed that the most common reason for nonvaccination is the judgment of being healthy enough not to need vaccination, and a poor subjective health status has been associated with a higher vaccination rate [21,26]. However, the results of our study differed from those of previous studies.…”

“…Based on independent variables, our analysis showed that male respondents were more likely to get influenza vaccination, and this was also evident in our multivariate analysis. Although sex as an influencing factor in influenza vaccination among adults has been inconsistently evident [1,20,21], unlike in our study, several studies have shown higher vaccination rates in females than in males [22,23]. In general, because females tend to have a healthier lifestyle and be more interested in health information, are more likely to follow preventive health care recommendations, and use health care services more often than males do, acceptance for the influ- enza vaccination is likely to be higher among females [24,25].…”

Background: Influenza viral infection is a major public health problem with significant morbidity and mortality. Asthma is a risk factor for developing serious complications related to influenza infection. Objective: We explored factors associated with influenza vaccination coverage among adolescents with asthma. Methods: Data were obtained from 62,276 participants in the 13th Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey (KYRBS) conducted in 2017. KYRBS data were obtained from a stratified, multistage, clustered sample. We used multiple logistic regression analyses to identify variables potentially related to influenza vaccination in adolescents with asthma. Results: The proportion of asthma was 8.8%, and the influenza vaccination rate overall was 37.9%. It was 41.8% in the asthma group and 37.5% in the nonasthma group (p < 0.001). After regression, male sex (odds ratio (OR) = 1.45; 95% CI 1.35-1.55), a high socioeconomic status (OR = 1.12; 95% CI 1.05-1.19), residence at an orphanage (OR = 1.93; 95% CI 1.38-2.29), regular breakfast consumption (OR = 1.09; 95% CI 1.02-1.17), and subjective good health (OR = 2.39; 95% CI 1.69-3.39) were associated with increased influenza vaccination, whereas current smoking (OR = 0.87; 95% CI 0.67-0.96) and a depressive mood (OR = 0.77; 95% CI 0.64-0.95) were inversely associated in adolescents with asthma. Conclusion: It is important to improve influenza vaccination in adolescents with asthma, especially females, those with a low socioeconomic status, independent residents, breakfast skippers, current smokers, and those who consider themselves unhealthy and have depressive moods.

“…Well-informed parents who support and maintain vaccination records will have an improved sense of control and the ratification of playing an active role in keeping their children healthy (Fadda et al, 2015, Thorpe et al, 2016, Varkey et al, 2010, Kundi et al, 2015). Parents, who have an active interest in vaccinations, will likely encourage their peers to do the same, thereby improving public knowledge and appreciation of immunization programs (Yeung et al, 2016, Gargano et al, 2015). …”

Parents are often uncertain about the vaccination status of their children. In times of vaccine hesitancy, vaccination programs could benefit from active patient participation. The Vaccination App (VAccApp) was developed by the Vienna Vaccine Safety Initiative, enabling parents to learn about the vaccination status of their children, including 25 different routine, special indication and travel vaccines listed in the WHO Immunization Certificate of Vaccination (WHO-ICV). Between 2012 and 2014, the VAccApp was validated in a hospital-based quality management program in Berlin, Germany, in collaboration with the Robert Koch Institute. Parents of 178 children were asked to transfer the immunization data of their children from the WHO-ICV into the VAccApp. The respective WHO-ICV was photocopied for independent, professional data entry (gold standard). Demonstrating the status quo in vaccine information reporting, a Recall Group of 278 parents underwent structured interviews for verbal immunization histories, without the respective WHO-ICV. Only 9% of the Recall Group were able to provide a complete vaccination status; on average 39% of the questions were answered correctly. Using the WHO-ICV with the help of the VAccApp resulted in 62% of parents providing a complete vaccination status; on average 95% of the questions were answered correctly. After using the VAccApp, parents were more likely to remember key aspects of the vaccination history. User-friendly mobile applications empower parents to take a closer look at the vaccination record, thereby taking an active role in providing accurate vaccination histories. Parents may become motivated to ask informed questions and to keep vaccinations up-to-date.

“…33 Further, demographic characteristics such as age, sex, education level, income, and race have been shown to influence whether adults comply with vaccine recommendations. 17,[33][34][35] It has previously been found that socioeconomically disadvantaged individuals are less likely to participate in preventative health-seeking behaviours. 18 A study by La et al 36 investigated factors that were associated with uptake of vaccinations in adults in the US, specifically influenza, HZV, pneumococcal, and Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis).…”
