撒哈拉以南非洲地区的COVID-19疫苗接种率仍低于其他低收入和中等收入地区。这在一定程度上是由于疫苗犹豫不决,主要是由于对疫苗来源、有效性和安全性的错误信息。从2021年8月至12月,我们从12名撒哈拉以南非洲研究人员那里收集了四个疫苗犹豫相关领域(政策、感知风险宗教信仰和错误信息)的最新经验和意见,其中四名研究人员发表了关于COVID-19疫苗犹豫的文章。作者包括来自10个撒哈拉以南非洲国家(喀麦隆、加纳、肯尼亚、利比里亚、尼日利亚、塞拉利昂、南非、坦桑尼亚、乌干达和津巴布韦)的2名政治和商业专家、6名公共卫生专家、5名流行病学家和4名生物统计学家。作者的总体观点是,撒哈拉以南非洲存在政治影响、宗教信仰和低感知风险,它们共同导致了COVID-19疫苗的犹豫。宣传战略应针对决策者最初认为风险低的人口,利用多种宣传渠道,解决人口中的主要关切问题。
Rates of vaccination against COVID-19 remain lower in sub-Saharan Africa than in other low and middle-income regions. This is, in part, attributed to vaccine hesitancy, mainly due to misinformation about vaccine origin, efficacy and safety. From August to December 2021, we gathered the latest experiences and opinions on four vaccine hesitancy-related areas (policies, perceived risk religious beliefs, and misinformation) from 12 sub-Saharan African researchers, four of whom have published about COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. The authors included two political and business experts, six public health specialists, five epidemiologists, and four biostatisticians from ten sub-Saharan African countries( Cameroon, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe). The authors’ overarching opinions were that political influences, religious beliefs and low perceived risk exists in sub-Saharan Africa, and they collectively contribute to COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. Communication strategies should target populations initially thought by policy makers to be at low risk, use multiple communication avenues and address major concerns in the population.
