In the fall of 2022, number influenza-like illnesses (ILIs) and severe acute respiratory infections (SARIs) in Saudi Arabia had significantly increased compared with corresponding period previous years. Concerns regarding population’s seasonal influenza vaccine (SIV) uptake rates have emerged. particular, SIV may dropped post COVID-19 pandemic prior to era. this study, we aimed estimate prevalence predictors pandemic. We conducted a cross-sectional study utilizing an online survey platform. mainly collected sociodemographic information determined whether respondent was healthcare professional or chronic disease.

Abstract Introduction Motivated by the disproportionate burden of infectious diseases on vulnerable populations and risk future pandemics, we conducted a scoping review to analyze state literature about “vaccine uptake indices,” defined as models that predict vaccination rates geospatial area. We analyzed novel vaccine indices created in response recent COVID-19 pandemic. The aim this is survey regarding relating other diseases. Methods with systematic search strategy identify relevant articles from databases Embase, PubMed, Web Science title abstract screening, full-text review, data extraction. Results Database searches resulted 3,615 potential articles, which 229 reports were included. Fifteen studies (7%) determined be methodologically advanced had at least three following characteristics: use individual- population-level predictor variables (100 [44%]), geo-spatiotemporal analysis (58 [25%]), usage agnostic specificity (50 [22%]), or sociobehavioral frameworks health (such Health Belief Model Theory Planned Behavior) (30 [13%]). Conclusion This offers suggestions for research next-generation before campaigns recurring Areas pursue include utilizing individual-level behaviors conjunction administrative data, solving challenge implementing small-area spatiotemporal analysis, using vaccine-agnostic methods consider more than one disease, assisting causal inference theoretical frameworks.

The fifth wave of COVID-19, driven by the Omicron variant, started to surge in Hong Kong December 2021. Previous studies have shown that younger adults, compared older are vulnerable increased risks side effects after vaccination. However, little is known about COVID-19 vaccination behavior among especially university students, Kong. Therefore, present online survey study aimed investigate predictors intention students using Health Belief Model (HBM) as a framework. Two other potential predictors, previous influenza vaccine uptake frequency and SAR government lottery program, were also examined. receive another dose was low (36.4%). Multivariate binomial logistic regression analysis showed that, controlling for demographic baseline characteristics, perceived susceptibility (OR = 2.98, CI 1.18-7.53) 1.54, 1.08-2.19) significantly positively predicted intention. program (i.e., wining prizes being vaccinated) 0.87, 0.34-2.26) not significant motivator Future public health campaigns should focus on individual past history promote students.
