This is to invite HIFA members who are based in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, New Zealand, Spain, the UK, and USA to participate in a short survey on attitudes towards vaccination. The link to the survey is here: https://www.wfpha.org/has-the-pandemic-had-an-impact-on-your-attitude-to...
The survey is being carried out by the World Federation of Public Health Associations (WFPHA), which is starting a project to analyse if and how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted healthcare and public health workers’ sentiment towards vaccination. In particular, the WFPHA seeks to understand any sentiment changes concerning the COVID-19 and seasonal flu vaccinations.
The WFPHA invites all those engaged in the health sector to complete the short 5-minute survey, including (but not limited to) public health professionals, physicians, nurses, dentists, midwifes, pharmacists, social and community health workers working in any setting from hospital to academia, at the Ministry of Health or with communities, etc.
We will report the results of the survey on this list.
