简要总结
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted deleterious US health inequities. Specifically, African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans have and continue to shoulder a greater burden of COVID-19 infections and deaths in the US. In addition to existing racial and ethnic disparities are rural health and regional disparities. Given the disproportionate impact of disease in US communities of color and also in rural and southern regions of the US, there is no doubt that these at-risk subgroups will continue to experience higher rates of coronavirus-related mortality as well as other long-term health outcomes as compared to other US populations.
It is unknown how healthcare providers and other key at-risk subgroups within the US will receive COVID-19 vaccines. For success in immunizations, the US will need to reach their most at-risk and vulnerable populations. In addition to at-risk populations, a successful immunization strategy will involve engaging providers to support clear, consistent, and strong vaccine recommendation. It is critical to build vaccine trust, confidence, and overall acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines among healthcare providers and key at-risk subgroups, especially given the accelerated production timeline of these vaccines. Likewise, tailored vaccine messaging for key subgroups is vital in achieving vaccine confidence and trust.
The proposed study will explore perceptions, confidence, trust, and uptake of potential COVID-19 vaccines among healthcare providers (nurses and doctors) and key at-risk population subgroups (minority populations living in the rural south) and will develop and test vaccine messaging that boosts vaccine confidence and trust among these key at-risk subgroups.
详细描述
Study objectives are as follows: Objective 1: To assess COVID-19 perceptions, COVID-19 vaccine confidence, projected vaccine recommendation practices, and trust in the health system and public health authorities among a cross-section of healthcare providers in the US (nurses and physicians); Objective 2: To assess COVID-19 perceptions, COVID-19 vaccine confidence, projected vaccine uptake, and trust in the health system, in healthcare providers, and in public health authorities among key at-risk subgroups in the US (minority populations living in the rural south); and Objective 3: To develop, tailor, and test COVID-19 vaccine messaging to boost vaccine confidence and trust, and COVID-19 preventive behavior, among at-risk subgroups in the US (minority populations living in the rural south). Perceptions, confidence, uptake, and trust in potential COVID-19 vaccines will be assessed among four identified and distinct groups via a quantitative and electronic survey and qualitative focus groups with key at-risk subgroups will be utilized to develop, tailor, and test COVID-19 vaccine messaging for at-risk subgroups.
This study will: 1) provide important national-level data regarding healthcare provider vaccine perceptions, confidence, trust, and projected vaccine recommendation practices for COVID-19, 2) ascertain vaccine perceptions, confidence, trust, and projected uptake of potential COVID-19 vaccines among at-risk populations in the US, and 3) develop tailored messaging for at-risk populations that can be used to boost vaccine confidence and trust, and preventive behaviors, among these high-risk groups in the coming years. This study will help to inform a larger coordinated national promotion strategy and campaign that can work to effectively communicate with the public about potential COVID-19 vaccines.
