The determinants of COVID-19 vaccine uptake among migrants from 109 countries residing in China: A cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine uptake among foreign migrants in China and to explore the determinants of their vaccine uptake behavior.

Methods

From June to October 2021, we used convenience and snowball sampling to recruit a sample of 764 participants from five cities in which the overwhelming majority of foreign migrants in China live. The chi-square (χ²) tests were used to examine vaccination distribution according to demographic characteristics. Multivariate logistic regression models visualized by forest plot were used to investigate the associations between significant determinants and vaccine uptake.

Results

Overall, the prevalence of vaccination rate was 72.9% [95% confidence interval (CI): 69.9-
