COVID-19大流行的管理取决于安全有效的疫苗的批准，但同样重要的是，人们对疫苗的高度接受。为了通过有效的卫生宣传促进疫苗的接受，关键是要了解疫苗怀疑的程度以及人口、心理和政治预测因素。为此，我们研究了批准的COVID-19疫苗的接受程度和预测因素。我们在来自八个西方民主国家的大型在线调查中检查了批准的COVID-19疫苗的接受程度和预测因素，这些国家在大流行的严重程度及其反应方面有所不同：丹麦、法国、德国、匈牙利、瑞典、意大利、英国和美国（总数N=18 231）。对调查对象进行了配额抽样，以匹配每个国家在年龄、性别和地理位置方面的人口差距。该研究于2020年9月至2021年2月期间进行，让我们能够评估随着COVID-19疫苗计划的推出，接受度和预测因素的变化。该研究的结果是自我报告接受卫生当局批准和推荐的COVID-19疫苗。数据显示，疫苗接受率存在很大差异，从丹麦的83%到法国和匈牙利的47%。缺乏疫苗接受度与对当局和科学家缺乏信任、阴谋思维以及对COVID-19缺乏关注有关。大多数国家的疫苗接受水平低于群体免疫所需阈值的估计数。研究结果强调了在应对当前大流行等突发卫生事件的准备工作中建立信任的长期重要性。对于健康传播，研究结果强调了关注感染的个人后果和揭穿神话以指导传播策略的重要性。
The management of the COVID-19 pandemic hinges on the approval of safe and effective vaccines but, equally importantly, on high vaccine acceptance among people. To facilitate vaccine acceptance via effective health communication, it is key to understand levels of vaccine scepticism and the demographic, psychological and political predictors. To this end, we examine the levels and predictors of acceptance of an approved COVID-19 vaccine. We examine the levels and predictors of acceptance of an approved COVID-19 vaccine in large online surveys from eight Western democracies that differ in terms of the severity of the pandemic and their response: Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Sweden, Italy, UK and USA (total N=18 231). Survey respondents were quota sampled to match the population margins on age, gender and geographical location for each country. The study was conducted from September 2020 to February 2021, allowing us to assess changes in acceptance and predictors as COVID-19 vaccine programmes were rolled out. The outcome of the study is self-reported acceptance of a COVID-19 vaccine approved and recommended by health authorities. The data reveal large variations in vaccine acceptance that ranges from 83% in Denmark to 47% in France and Hungary. Lack of vaccine acceptance is associated with lack of trust in authorities and scientists, conspiratorial thinking and a lack of concern about COVID-19. Most national levels of vaccine acceptance fall below estimates of the required threshold for herd immunity. The results emphasise the long-term importance of building trust in preparations for health emergencies such as the current pandemic. For health communication, the results emphasise the importance of focusing on personal consequences of infections and debunking of myths to guide communication strategies.
