Abstract

Aim: To determine the acceptability of the corona-virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine and the main reasons for vaccine hesitation in pregnant health care workers (HCWs). Method: 135 pregnant HCWs were questioned face-to-face about perception and attitudes towards the COVID-19 vaccine and reasons for rejection of the vaccine. Participants were evaluated according to:(1) whether they wanted to be vaccinated, (2) whether they were actively working in COVID-19 units, and (3) whether they were a doctor or other healthcare professional. Results: Sixty-six (48.9%) participants stated that they want to be vaccinated if the COVID-19 vaccine is recommended to pregnant women.We observed that active staff in COVID-19 units and doctors had more intention to be vaccinated.The thought that the COVID-19 vaccine would be harmful to the baby was significantly higher in other HCWs group than doctors. Conclusion: The present study revealed that even if the rate of vaccine acceptance among pregnant HCWs was higher than pregnant non-HCWs, it remained below the rate required for “herd immunity” for COVID-19 disease. Lack of data on the safety of the vaccine in pregnant women is the most important obstacle. We can overcome obstacles only by including pregnant women in phase 3 studies of COVID-19 vaccines.

Özet

Amaç: Gebe sağlık çalışanlarında COVID-19 aşısının kabul edilebilirliğini ve aşı tereddütünün ana nedenlerini belirlemek. Gereçler ve Yöntem: 135 gebe sağlık çalışanına, COVID-19 aşısına yönelik algı ve tutumları ile aşının reddedilme nedenleri hakkında yüz yüze sorular soruldu. Katılımcılar (1) aşı olmak isteyip istemedikleri, (2) COVID-19 birimlerinde aktif olarak çalışıp çalışmadıkları ve (3) doktor veya başka bir sağlık çalışanı olup olmadıklarına göre değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Altmış altı (%48.9) katılımcı, gebelere COVID-19 aşısı önerilmesi durumunda aşı olmak istediklerini belirtti. COVID-19 birimlerinde aktif çalışan doktor ve diğer sağlık personellerinin aşı olma eğilimlerinin daha fazla olduğunu gözlemledik. COVID-19 aşısının bebeğe zararlı olacağı düşüncesi, diğer sağlık çalışanları grubunda doktorlara göre anlamlı derecede yüksekti. Sonuç : Bu çalışma, gebe sağlık çalışanları arasında aşı kabul oranının, sağlık çalışanı olmayan gebelere göre daha yüksek olsa bile, COVID-19 hastalığının “sürü bağışıklığı” için gereken oranın altında kaldığını ortaya koymuştur. Gebe kadınlarda aşının güvenliğine ilişkin veri eksikliği, aşı olma isteğinin önündeki en önemli engeldir. Gebelerin COVID-19 aşılarının faz-3 çalışmalarına dahil edilmesiyle bu engel ortadan kaldırılabilir.
