实现高水平的COVID-19疫苗接种覆盖率可能会受到疫苗犹豫的阻碍。我们量化了大学生对COVID-19疫苗犹豫的患病率，调查了其决定因素，并分析了学生的态度、风险认知和对预防措施的依从性。调查于2021年3月1日至6月30日在网上进行。建立多变量逻辑回归模型以确定犹豫的预测因素。总的来说，我们收集了5369份问卷，分为三个调查期（3月，4月至5月和5月至6月）。应答率为81.2%至76.4%，而疫苗犹豫率为22%至29%。多变量分析显示，4月至5月的参与者比3月的受访者有更高的犹豫几率。其他积极的预测因素是男性，不是医疗保健专业的学生，学术水平较低，没有透露政治立场。相反，对COVID-19严重程度的感知、对紧急情况的担忧、对疫苗安全性和有效性的信心以及自我报告的在室内和室外佩戴口罩的坚持程度与犹豫呈负相关。我们发现，疫苗犹豫会随着时间的推移而改变，并与几个因素有关。应制定旨在提高学生的认识和参与度、恢复对卫生当局的信心和限制疫苗周围虚假信息的战略。
Achieving high levels of vaccination coverage against COVID-19 may be hindered by vaccine hesitancy. We quantified over time the prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among university students, investigated its determinants, and analyzed student attitudes, risk perceptions and compliance with preventive measures. The survey was administered online from 1 March to 30 June 2021. A multivariable logistic regression model was built to identify predictors of hesitancy. Overall, we collected 5369 questionnaires that were grouped into three survey periods (March, April–May, and May–June). The response rate ranged from 81.2% to 76.4%, whereas vaccine hesitancy ranged from 22% to 29%. Multivariable analysis showed that April–May participants had higher odds of hesitancy than March respondents. Other positive predictors were being male, not being a healthcare student, having a lower academic level, and not disclosing a political position. Conversely, higher levels of perceived COVID-19 severity, concern for the emergency, confidence in vaccine safety and effectiveness, and self-reported adherence to mask wearing indoors and outdoors were negatively associated with hesitancy. We found that vaccine hesitancy changed over time and in relation to several factors. Strategies aimed at increasing the students’ awareness and engagement, restoring confidence in health authorities, and limiting disinformation around the vaccines should be devised.
