“…Sixty-one studies reported perceived barriers to receiving an influenza vaccination in the total population ( Table 4 ) [ 16 , 17 , 19 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 40 , 41 , 43 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , …”

“…Barrier types were further assessed to determine the key factors (determined by agreement rate) across the general and unvaccinated population for not receiving an influenza vaccine. The top-five barriers to influenza vaccination, as reported by the total population compared to the unvaccinated population, are illustrated in Figure 3 [ 16 , 17 , 19 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 40 , 41 , 43 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , ...…”

“…There was little difference between the unvaccinated and total populations when comparing other barriers ( Figure 3 ). Costs associated with influenza vaccination were the fourth-most-prevalent barrier; however, this varied due to the heterogeneity in reimbursement practices for influenza vaccines between different countries and sub-populations [ 21 , 24 , 27 , 33 , 39 , 52 , 67 , 69 , 73 , 82 ].…”

Understanding the Barriers and Attitudes toward Influenza Vaccine Uptake in the Adult General Population: A Rapid Review

et al. 2023

Influenza is a common respiratory infection associated with a substantial clinical, humanistic, and economic burden globally. Vaccines are essential to prevent and control influenza and are recommended by public-health agencies, such as the WHO and US CDC; however, vaccination rates vary considerably across the globe. This review aimed to investigate the perceived barriers and attitudes to influenza vaccination in the global population, in order to identify strategies that may improve influenza vaccination coverage. A structured literature search was undertaken to identify studies that reported on patient-reported attitudes towards influenza vaccination, focused on the adult general population in 16 prespecified countries. Eighty studies were included in this review. Negative attitude towards healthcare were found to be the most agreed upon barrier to vaccine uptake (31.1% agreement). The most agreed promoter of influenza vaccination was trust in healthcare services (62.0% agreement). Approximately 50% of participants intended to receive the influenza vaccine in the following season. To improve influenza vaccination coverage, healthcare workers must strengthen the foundation of substantial trust in healthcare services and provide educational materials that improve influenza vaccination knowledge among the adult general population.

“…A previous study in China indicated merely 19.6% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were willing to get vaccinated during the 2016/2017 influenza season. 32 Another research suggested that 20% of Canadian individuals aged over 50 years who had planned to skip the influenza shot had changed their minds in light of COVID-19 in the 2020/2021 season. 33 These suggested that the COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on raising public awareness of health issues and disease prevention.…”

Elderly individuals with chronic illnesses are more prone to get influenza. We aimed to investigate the factors associated with influenza coverage and willingness in chronic disease patients aged ≥60 years in Longhua district, Shenzhen City of southern China. Data collected in October 2020 were used in this work. The immunization status of older persons with chronic conditions and their willingness to receive the vaccine were assessed. Multivariable logistic regression was employed to determine the respective independent factors related to vaccination coverage and willingness for influenza. Only 4.8% of 5045 people were immunized against influenza, whereas 92.7% of the individuals agreed to receive the vaccine. Individuals between the ages of 70 and 79 (adjusted OR [aOR] 1.47, P = .012), those with higher education levels (aOR 1.53, P = .005 for high school; aOR 2.44, P < .001 for college or above), those who use of a family doctor (aOR 2.91, P < .001), those who frequently have physical examinations once a year (aOR 2.52, P < .001), and those who have never smoked (aOR 1.62, P = .018) were positively associated with the influenza vaccination. Meanwhile, older age was adversely linked with influenza vaccination willingness (aOR 0.68 for 70–79 years, P = .003; aOR 0.55 for≥80 years, P = .025) in contrast to those aged 60–69. High willingness to get vaccinated was more frequent in people with a high school diploma (aOR 1.33, P = .037). In this work, we observed that the coverage is poor but the immunization desire is high regarding influenza vaccination. Interestingly, older age was associated with higher coverage and lower willingness. These suggest that raising immunization rates among older people with chronic conditions and strengthening health education for caregivers should be the primary concerns.

“…The willingness of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Southeast China to receive influenza vaccine was associated with their opinion that persons with diabetes were susceptible to the infection, knowledge that the vaccine is available and the fact that they were vaccinated against influenza in the past seasons (43).…”

Annually, at a global level, 3 to 5 million people present severe clinical forms of seasonal influenza and up to 650 000 people die of influenza-related complications. People with chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, hepatic, neurologic, hematologic and metabolic diseases or those reciveing immunosuppressive therapy, constitute a high-risk population group for the development of influenza-related complications, more severe clinical course and poorer health-related outcomes. Due to all of the above, people with chronic diseases are of high priority to receive the influenza vaccine. Immunization represents the key strategy to prevent influenza both in terms of effectiveness and health care costs. Based on the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations, adequate seasonal influenza immunization coverage among people with chronic diseases is set at 75%. However, few countries achieve this threshold. Understanding predictive factors of vaccination, at different levels of health care delivery (such as individuals, service providers, health policy), is essential to secure acceptance of influenza immunization and achieve the recommended level of vaccination coverage. In this mini review, all the available evidence regarding seasonal influenza vaccination coverage is summarized, alongside factors associated with vaccine uptake in people with chronic diseases as a whole, as well as according to specific diseases such as: cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders, diabetes and cancer. Based on the reviewed empirical evidence, a wide spectrum of factors associated with immunization against influneza was found in people who have chronic diseases. Although diverse, these factors can be systematized into 4 distinctive groups: socio-demographic characteristics, individual attitudes and beliefs, health promoting behaviors and factors related to the health care system. Further efforts are needed to improve the seasonal influenza vaccination coverage. The immunization strategy needs to include the health care system and the community to support people with chronic diseases to continously accept the influenza vaccine.
