COVID-19 has represented a significant treat on people's life especially population at risk such as pregnant women. As the clinical trials excluded the outcome of the vaccine on pregnant women much of the disease behaviour remain unknown. In this study we assess vaccine hesitancy in pregnancy. This observational descriptive cross-sectional study included 173 pregnant women that were interviewed and requested to complete a self-administrated questionnaire about their symptoms, acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccine, and the fears among those that reject it. Statistical analysis was completed using SPSS version 26. Of 173 pregnant women 79.8% (138) rejected vaccination during pregnancy. Acceptance rates were higher in the youthful ages among the pregnant community. However, statical p-value (p >0.05) were insignificant. Vaccine hesitancy was found to be extremely high among pregnant women. Vaccination must be encouraged to protect vulnerable people in pregnant society. Educational campaigns and provision of evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccine may enhance acceptance rate among pregnant women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
