For patients with chronic diseases, COVID-19 infection poses the risk of serious illness and death; therefore, getting vaccinated is absolutely necessary. This cross-sectional research aimed to study acceptance of the COVID-19 full-dose vaccination among adults with chronic diseases in Prachin Buri Province. The sample was 300 patients with chronic diseases, ages 35-59, selected by simple random sampling, who registered for care at the chronic disease out-patient departments at secondary government hospitals. Research tools included e-questionnaires, consisting of personal information, knowledge of COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccines, and health perceptions, including perceived susceptibility to COVID-19 infection, perceived severity of COVID-19, perceived barriers of the COVID-19 vaccine, perceived benefits of the COVID-19 vaccine, and advice from medical professionals. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficients were .74, .77, .86, .91, .91, and .91, respectively. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression.
The results showed that 86.3% of respondents were most accepting of COVID-19 vaccinations. The factors significantly associated with acceptance of COVID-19 full-dose vaccination among adults with chronic diseases were income (OR = 4.65, 95%CI = 1.894-11.459, p < .01); perceived benefits of the COVID-19 vaccine (OR = 3.51, 95%CI = 1.791-6.914, p < .05); perceived susceptibility to COVID-19 infection (OR = 2.07, 95%CI =1.048-4.094, p < .001); and advice from medical professionals (OR = 2.68, 95%CI = 1.349-5.360, p < .01).
The results of this research suggest that healthcare professionals should communicate with patients regarding the risk of infection as the benefits of getting vaccinated and advice from healthcare professionals are critical in encouraging people with chronic diseases to get vaccinated.
