“…The intention of this review was to capture a wide variety of characteristics to ensure the population sample was representative of census data and, therefore, generalizable to the global population. To illustrate the variation in demographics across individual studies, a summary of participant characteristics from 22 US-based studies is presented in Table 3 [ 16 , 26 , 28 , 31 , 34 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 ]. The heterogeneity reported across US-based studies was comparable to the observed data from other countries.…”

“…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 , …”

“…The perceived barriers specific to the unvaccinated population were assessed in 20 publications. Similarly, social barriers were most commonly investigated (N = 67), although the unvaccinated population most frequently reported a perceived lack of knowledge of influenza vaccines (32.3%) [ 16 , 19 , 21 , 23 , 24 , 31 , 34 , 37 , 41 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 57 , 58 , 60 , 68 , 69 , 75 , 77 , 79 ].…”

“…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 , ...…”

“…Promoters of vaccine uptake were categorized using the definitions detailed in Table 2 . Thirty studies reported data on factors the adult general population considered a promoter to vaccine uptake ( Table 5 ) [ 16 , 17 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 28 , 31 , 33 , 35 , 36 , 38 , 41 , 46 , 47 , 52 , 57 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 67 , 68 , 71 , 72 , 75 , 77 , 85 ]. Social promoters were investigated most often (N = 125); however, trust in HCWs was the promoter with the highest agreement rate (68.1%).…”

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.

Introduction. The relatively stable incidence of most controlled infections shifts the focus of public attention from the need for vaccination to the likelihood of post-vaccination complications. Aim. To examine the adherence of various population groups and health workers to vaccine prophylaxis and analyze the reasons for anti-vaccination scepticism. Materials and methods. A survey was conducted on the attitudes towards vaccination among one thousand nine hundred thirty nine respondents including 485 doctors of various specialties (163 pediatricians, 86 surgeons, 85 obstetricians-gynecologists, 76 neurologists, 75 neonatologists), 117 nurses, 295 parents, 1042 students. The significance of differences was assessed using Student’s t-test. Results. An insufficient level of adherence to vaccine prophylaxis has been established: 43.1% of parents vaccinate their children selectively, 35.4% according to the national calendar, 17.1% refuse categorically, and 4.4% have a medical refusal. The main reason for refusal is fear of complications (30%). Less than half receive information from health workers (45.6%), the main source being the media (49.1%). Among health workers, adherence to vaccine prophylaxis is highest among pediatricians (86.1%), significantly lower among neurologists (35.6%), surgeons (43.7%), obstetricians-gynecologists (62.6%), nurses (79.5%). The main reason for distrust of vaccination is fear of post-vaccination complications, narrow specialists more often choose the answer “better to get sick”. Among medical university students there is a significantly higher adherence among senior students in paediatrics (63.6%) compared to students in undergraduate (40.8%) and medical school (48.8%). However, 5% of those surveyed do not plan to vaccinate their children in the future. Polytechnic students have a more negative attitude towards vaccination accounted for only 36.4% vaccinated according to the National Calendar and 30% do not plan to vaccinate their children in the future. Conclusion. There is a clear need for additional training programs on vaccination to raise the awareness of health care workers on this issue, which will provide a strong rationale for the importance of immunization to patients and their parents.
