Abstract
UTAMI, Tri Niswati et al. The urgency of strengthening health information to support public perception and involvement in the COVID-19 vaccine. Gac Sanit [online]. 2023, vol.37, 102265. Epub May 03, 2023. ISSN 0213-9111. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.gaceta.2022.102265.
Objective:
To identify the driving and inhibiting factors and to find a prototype of community involvement in the COVID-19 vaccine.
Method:
Data sources from PubMed database, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and ProQuest. The data were obtained based on searches using the keyword COVID-19 (n=11,.599), focusing on community acceptance (n=813), community involvement (n=86), and types of articles (n=46). Articles that meet the inclusion criteria are seven, and the data were analyzed with ATLAS Ti.9 software.
Results:
Engagement and driving factors have the highest correlation (0.38). The drivers, perceptions of vulnerability, and inhibiting factors determine community involvement. The perception of exposure can be a supporting or inhibiting factor influenced by information reinforcement.
Conclusions:
Strengthening positive information can alter the sense of community vulnerability, making it a driving force for participation in the COVID-19 vaccine campaign. This finding is an appropriate strategy to expand the reach and resolve public doubts about accepting the vaccine.
