非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔美国人受到新冠肺炎的影响不成比例。原因是多方面的，包括健康的社会和结构决定因素。在疫情开始和高峰期间，有证据表明，接受SARS CoV-2检测的机会减少了。2020年，国家卫生研究院发起了服务不足人群快速加速诊断(RADx)倡议，以改善服务不足社区的SARS CoV-2检测。在这项研究中，我们调查了纽约市公共住房居民对SARS CoV-2检测和疫苗接种的态度、经历和障碍。在2020年12月至2021年3月期间，我们对36名居住在纽约市公共住房的低收入少数族裔居民进行了9次虚拟焦点小组调查。在报告以前进行过SARS CoV-2检测的居民中，进行检测的主要原因是为了准备医疗程序或因为高风险暴露。检测的障碍包括担心鼻拭子带来的不适，担心旅行去检测时接触新冠肺炎，担心检测呈阳性的后果，以及认为检测没有必要。居民反映对信息来源和卫生保健系统总体上不信任；他们更多地依靠“口碑”来获得信息。疫苗接种的主要障碍是对疫苗安全性缺乏信任。居民们支持更方便的测试，在居民楼进行现场测试，以及家庭自检套件。居民们还强调，需要与语言一致的信息共享，信息来自“看起来像[他们]、来自[他们]相同背景的人”。SARS CoV-2检测和疫苗接种的障碍集中在缺乏准确信息、恐惧、不信任、安全和便利等主题。居民认可的增加测试的战略包括使测试更容易通过家庭或现场测试地点访问。社区可信成员的教育和信息共享是打击错误信息和建立信任的重要工具。
African American and Hispanic populations have been affected disproportionately by COVID-19. Reasons are multifactorial and include social and structural determinants of health. During the onset and height of the pandemic, evidence suggested decreased access to SARS CoV-2 testing. In 2020, the National Institutes of Health launched the Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx)- Underserved Populations initiative to improve SARS CoV-2 testing in underserved communities. In this study, we explored attitudes, experiences, and barriers to SARS CoV-2 testing and vaccination among New York City public housing residents. Between December 2020 and March 2021, we conducted 9 virtual focus groups among 36 low-income minority residents living in New York City public housing. Among residents reporting a prior SARS CoV-2 test, main reasons for testing were to prepare for a medical procedure or because of a high-risk exposure. Barriers to testing included fear of discomfort from the nasal swab, fear of exposure to COVID-19 while traveling to get tested, concerns about the consequences of testing positive and the belief that testing was not necessary. Residents reported a mistrust of information sources and the health care system in general; they depended more on “word of mouth” for information. The major barrier to vaccination was lack of trust in vaccine safety. Residents endorsed more convenient testing, onsite testing at residential buildings, and home self-test kits. Residents also emphasized the need for language-concordant information sharing and for information to come from “people who look like [them] and come from the same background as [them]”. Barriers to SARS CoV-2 testing and vaccination centered on themes of a lack of accurate information, fear, mistrust, safety, and convenience. Resident-endorsed strategies to increase testing include making testing easier to access either through home or onsite testing locations. Education and information sharing by trusted members of the community are important tools to combat misinformation and build trust.
