Sumario:Objective: To investigate the inoculation status of Novel Coronavirus vaccine among college students in Hainan province and its related influencing factors, and to provide scientific basis for improving the inoculation rate of this population. Methods: An electronic questionnaire survey was conducted among 7 colleges and universities in Hainan Province from April 16 to 19, 2021. A total of 5896 valid questionnaires were collected with informed consent and voluntary filling.The questionnaire collected information including general demographic characteristics, knowledge attitude and behavioral problems related to COVID-19 vaccine. The difference in the vaccination rate of college students with different characteristics was compared. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the related factors affecting the vaccination rate of college students in Hainan. Results: There were 3,360(57%) female students, 2,509(42.6%) medical students, 2,380(40.4%) Hainan students, 3,441(58.4%) undergraduates, 3,281(57.3%) rural students, and 5,165(87.6%) Han students. The inoculation rate of COVID-19 vaccine among college students in Hainan province was 81.7%. The average score of knowledge about COVID-19 vaccine was 11.78 ± 3.18, the total score was 17, and the relative attitude score was 47.77 ± 6.10, the total score was 55. Univariate analysis found that difference gender, age, grade, stage of study, medical students, Hainanese origin, school organization vaccination, vaccine knowledge and attitude scores, the difference of inoculation rate was statistically significant(P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that women (OR=1.204), medical profession (OR=4.587), native place of Hainan (OR=1.541), rural area of origin (OR=1.311), school carrying out collective vaccine vaccination (OR=2.933), high scores of knowledge about COVID vaccine (OR=1.104) and attitude (OR=1.025) could increase the vaccination rate of college students (P<0.05). Conclusion: The vaccination rate of college students in Hainan Province still needs to be improved. It is necessary to strengthen the popularization of vaccine-related knowledge among male students and non-medical students, improve the mastery of the knowledge of the vaccine and enhance the confidence of the vaccine in China, which is conducive to the improvement of the vaccination rate of college students.
