Description
Noa Feldman and co-authors present a 2024 study on vaccine choices among pregnant women in Israel. Pregnant women were a priority group in the covid pandemic. A cohort of 449 women was followed from late 2019 to late 2021. Surveys covered flu, whooping cough, and covid shots, plus attitudes, social norms, and risk views.
Covid uptake was highest, at 64 percent, then whooping cough at 49 and flu at 32. Non-religious women and those with degrees accepted shots more often. A doctor's advice was the strongest single push for all three. Media shaped covid choices in particular. Whooping cough was seen as the top threat to babies, covid to mothers. The authors urge personal outreach by clinicians and media-aware campaigns for hesitant groups.
