        Associations of COVID-19 risk perception with vaccine hesitancy over time for Italian residents

        Many countries were and are still struggling with the COVID-19 emergency. Despite efforts to limit the viral transmission, the vaccine is the only solution to ending the pandemic. However, vaccine hesitancy could reduce coverage and hinder herd immunity.

        The study followed the main phases of the emergency in Italy, investigating the intention to get vaccinated against flu and against SARS-CoV-2 (if a vaccine was available) before, during and after the first national lockdown, covering the period from the end of February to the end of June 2020. We investigated the effect of risk perception and other predictors on the decision of getting vaccinated.

          Gamification as Online Teaching Strategy During COVID-19: A Mini-Review

          11 papers from Chemistry, Business, Computer Science, Biology, and Medical areas have analyzed the use of gamification strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic and assessed student’s learning and motivation outcomes. In general, students reported that gamification was innovative, engaging, and an efficient strategy to deliver curricula material; moreover, it was perceived as a fun activity. Some students reported that gamified videoconferences aided to connect with their classmates during isolation time providing effective social support.

            Overcoming vaccine hesitancy in low-income and middle-income regions

            Vaccine hesitancy is prevalent in all demographic groups and settings; however, it remains vastly understudied in low-income and middle-income regions. Successful strategies to address hesitancy require an understanding of regional, cultural, and economic factors, and tailored training of health-care professionals. Vaccine confidence crises should be addressed swiftly. Further research is needed to optimize approaches.

              The Role of Trauma in Mothers’ COVID-19 Vaccine Beliefs and Intentions

              Research on COVID-19 vaccine beliefs has focused primarily on adults’ intentions to vaccinate themselves; however, many parents will also face decisions about vaccinating their children. In this study, we examine how maternal post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma history relate to mothers’ beliefs and intentions about the COVID-19 vaccine for themselves and their children.

                Trends in COVID-19 Vaccine Acceptance in the Philippines and their Implications on Health Communication

                UNDP Philippines, in close collaboration with the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) and the financial support of The Rockerfeller Foundation, has commissioned this research titled, “Trends in COVID-19 Vaccine Acceptance in the Philippines and Their Implications on Health Communication”, to deepen our understanding of the factors behind vaccine acceptance in Philippines.

                In this research, we applied innovative methodologies to generate insights for community mobilization and social behavior change communication (or SBCC) interventions, which could be an effective strategy in addressing vaccine acceptance. The report generated significant insights related to the level of vaccine acceptance, factors that determine the change in behavior and identified strategic communication messaging cues.

                    Communicating the potential benefits and harms of the Astra-Zeneca COVID-19 vaccine

                    This powerpoint presentation explains the potential benefits and harms of the Astra-Zeneca COVID-19 vaccine. It contains several graphs to display the potential benefits and harms of people by age and risk; they clearly show that despite the potential risks of the vaccine, complications from COVID-19 are far worse.
