简介：在ECDC以前进行的一项调查中，研究了卫生保健工作者（HCW）对免疫接种的态度和疫苗犹豫问题（欧洲疾病预防和控制中心）。目的：我们的目的是研究匈牙利初级保健儿科医生、全科医生和初级保健护士的免疫接种态度。我们通过问卷调查的方式研究了HCW的疫苗犹豫，该问卷是根据ECDC最近在四个国家进行的类似调查而制定的。在线调查于2017年5月至7月期间进行。共有765份问卷已返回：189初级保健儿科医生，375全科医生在成人或混合的做法，和201初级保健护士。样本已按国家的具体特征加权，例如，实践的位置，居住地和年龄的HCWs -在每三个组，所以从这方面可以被认为是representatives.Results：我们的研究结果并没有实质性的差异，从国际ECDC数据。大约2/3的初级保健医生和大约50%的初级保健护士相信疫苗的好处和价值。关于疫苗犹豫的数据令人欣慰地低，尽管与年龄相关/NIP（国家免疫计划）疫苗相比，推荐疫苗的数据略高。众所周知的疫苗恐慌-例如，自闭症- MMR等，从文献中也知道-几乎无法检测到，这可以通过自愿参与研究来解释。最不支持的疫苗是卡介苗，而最高的犹豫率是与MMR在Hungary.Conclusion：需要提高初级HCWs之间的免疫相关的通信可以清楚地检测-无论是在逐步和逐步后的培训计划。
Introduction: The attitude to immunization and the issue of vaccine hesitancy in health care workers (HCWs) have been studied in a former survey performed by ECDC (European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control).Aim: Our aim was to study the immunization attitude of primary care paediatricians, general practitioners and primary care nurses in Hungary.Method: We studied vaccine hesitancy in HCWs by way of a questionnaire, developed on the basis of a recent similar survey by ECDC in four countries. The online survey has been performed between May and July 2017. Altogether 765 questionnaires have been returned: 189 primary care paediatricians, 375 general practitioners working in adult or mixed practices, and 201 primary care nurses. The sample has been weighted to the country-specific features - e.g., location of the practice, residence and age of the HCWs - within each of the three groups, so from this aspect it can be considered representative.Results: Our results did not differ substantially from the international ECDC data. Approximately 2/3 of the primary care doctors and about 50% of the primary care nurses were convinced of the benefit and value of vaccines. Data on vaccine hesitancy were consolingly low, though the data on recommended vaccines were somewhat higher compared to the age related/NIP (National Immunization Plan) vaccines. The well-known vaccine scares - e.g., autism- MMR, etc., known also from the literature - could hardly been detected, and it can be explained by the voluntary participation in the study. The least supported vaccine is BCG, while the highest hesitancy rates are related to MMR in Hungary.Conclusion: The need to improve immunization-related communication among primary HCWs could clearly been detected - both in gradual and in post-gradual training programs.
