“…Acceptance of vaccination was low among healthcare workers who knew about vaccination compared with those who did not know. One possible reason is greater hesitancy among people with scientific information about vaccines’ potential side effects and risks [29]. The publication of scientific data on the safety of COVID-19 vaccines could increase their acceptance by healthcare providers [30].…”

Vaccination remains the primary strategy for ending the COVID-19 pandemic. However, vaccination rates are still low in low-income countries. The primary goal of this study was to describe the status of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance and hesitancy among women in Guinea and to identify associated predictors. We conducted a cross-sectional study in five Guinean cities (Conakry, Mamou, Kindia, Kankan and N'zérékoré) across the four natural regions between Mar 22 and Aug 25 2021. Participants aged 18 were randomly recruited from the healthcare workers (HCWs) and the general population (GP). We used multivariate logistic regression to identify facilitators and barriers to acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination and a classification and regression tree (CART) to extract the profile of predictors. We included 2,208 women among the HCWs and 1,121 in the GP. Most HCWs (63%) were already vaccinated, compared to only 28% of GP. The main factors associated with acceptance of a COVID-19 vaccine in the HCWs were an absence of pregnancy ORA = 4.46 [CI95%: 3.08, 6.52] and positive subjective norms ORA = 2.34 [CI95%: 1.92, 2.84]. Regarding the GP, the main factors were the ability to receive the vaccine ORA = 5.20 [CI95%: 3.45, 8.01] and being adult ORA = 2.25 [CI95%: 1.34, 3.79] associated with acceptance of vaccination. Vaccination rates were higher in the HCWs. Favourable subjective norms and ability to receive the vaccine were facilitators of acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination, while youth and pregnancy were barriers to the approval of the COVID-19 vaccine.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) disease caused a highly problematic situation worldwide. Various vaccines were launched to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to investigate the adverse effects of first and second doses of the Sinopharm vaccine among vaccinated medical and dental students and healthcare workers. A well-established questionnaire was distributed online, and 414 medical and dental students and healthcare workers (HCW) comprising 355 females (85.7%) and 59 males (14.3%) participated; all were vaccinated with two doses of Sinopharm. The most common side effect was pain at the injection site after dose one in 253 respondents (61.3%) and after dose two in 161 respondents (38.9%). Other symptoms included general lethargy in 168 (40.6%), myalgia/body pain in 99 (23.9%), low-grade fever in 93 (22.4%), and headache in 87 (21%) respondents. Common side effects reported after the second dose of the vaccine following pain at the injection site included general lethargy in 21.3% (88), headache in 10.4% (43), myalgia/body pain in 9.9% (41), and low-grade fever in 6.1% (25) of the respondents. In conclusion, common adverse effects of the Sinopharm vaccine were pain at the injection site, general lethargy, myalgia, body pain, low-grade fever, and headache. These adverse effects were mild in intensity for both doses but slightly more frequent and severe for the first dose than the second dose.

Amaç: Bu çalışma hemşirelerin aşı karşıtlığı düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapıldı. Yöntem: Çalışma 15 Eylül-30 Eylül 2022 tarihleri arasında bir eğitim araştırma hastanesinde tanımlayıcı olarak yapıldı. Örneklem seçimine gidilmeyip çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden, çalışma tarihlerinde izinli ve raporlu olmayan 282 hemşireye ulaşıldı. Veriler Kişisel Bilgi Formu ve Aşı Karşıtlığı Ölçeği kullanılarak hemşireler ile yüz yüze görüşülerek toplandı. Bu çalışmada bilimsel ve evrensel ilkelere uyuldu ve gerekli izinler alındı. Veriler IBM SPSS v25 paket programda analiz edildi. İstatistiksel anlamlılık düzeyi p<0.05 olarak kabul edildi. Veriler normal dağıldığından hemşirelerin tanıtıcı özellikleri ile ölçek puanlarının karşılaştırmasında Independent Sample T testi ve One-Way ANOVA testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan hemşirelerin yaş ortalaması 39.60±7.43 (min=20, max=59)’tür. Hemşirelerin %90.8’i kadın olup, %83.3’ü evli, %72.0’si lisans mezunu ve %62.1’i servis hemşiresi olarak çalışmaktadır. Hemşirelerin Aşı Karşıtlığı Ölçeği toplam puanı 46.82±12.43’tür (min=21, max=90). Aşı Karşıtlığı Ölçeği toplam puanı ile hemşirelerin aşı tereddütü yaşamaları, çocuk sahibi olma durumları ve aşı hakkında bilgi durumları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulundu (p<0.05). Sonuç: Çalışmamızda hemşirelerin aşı karşıtlığı orta düzeydedir. Aşı tereddütü yaşayan ve akrabasından/arkadaşından aşı hakkında bilgi edinen hemşirelerin Aşı Karşıtlığı Ölçeği toplam puanı daha yüksek, çocuk sahibi olan hemşirelerin Aşı Karşıtlığı Ölçeği toplam puanı daha düşüktür.
