Özet:

 Objective: Vaccine studies have gained importance along with the COVID-19 epidemic. With the start of vaccination practices, an increasing number of cases showing refusal or hesitation of vaccines have been observed. Our aim in this article is to determine whether there is vaccine refusal or hesitation among HIV-infected individuals and to reveal the reasons for this. Material and Methods: In this descriptive study, a survey was administered to 65 participants who applied to the HIV outpatient clinics in June, July and August 2021. Information about the patients medical history and information about their current medical conditions was obtained, and the reasons for COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy were learned. A persuasive method called anticipated regret has been used to persuade patients to get vaccinated. Results: Forty obese people living with HIV PLWH were included in the study. 22.5 n9 of PLWH were female, 77.5 n31 were male, and the median age was 36.5 years mean 39.711.6 years; min-max: 22-62 years. Vaccination rate in females was found significantly lower than in males p0.006. According to sexual orientation, the vaccination rate was significantly higher among men who have sex with men MSM p0.002. It was determined that 30 n12 of the patients did not receive the COVID-19 vaccine, and all of them had the intention of receiving the vaccine. When the reasons why patients did not receive the COVID-19 vaccine were examined, the first reason was that the vaccines were unsafe with a rate of 66.6 n  8. Conclusion: In this study, we found that the vaccination rate of people living with HIV is higher than the vaccination rate of the general population. It is thought that the reason for the higher vaccination rate in people living with HIV is due to the fact that medical counseling is provided at every follow-up.

 Amaç: COVID-19 pandemisi ile birlikte aşı çalışmaları da önem kazanmış durumdadır. Aşı uygulamalarının başlamasıyla aşı karşıtlığı veya tereddütü gösteren vakaların da arttığı görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada amacımız HIV ile enfekte bireylerde aşı karşıtlığı veya tereddütü olup olmadığını belirleyerek bunun sebeplerini açığa çıkarmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu tanımlayıcı çalışmada, 2021 yılı Haziran, Temmuz, Ağustos aylarında HIV polikliniğine başvuran 65 katılımcıya anket uygulanmıştır. Hastaların tıbbi geçmişlerine ait bilgiler ve mevcut tıbbi durumları hakkında bazı bilgiler alınmış ve beraberinde COVID-19 aşı tereddütlerinin nedenleri öğrenilmiştir. Hastaları aşı yaptırmaya ikna etmek için beklenen pişmanlık denilen ikna edici bir yöntem uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmaya 40 HIV ile yaşayan obez birey HYB dâhil edilmiştir. Bireylerin 22,5i n9 kadın, 77,5i n31 erkek olup yaş medyanı 36,5 yıldır ortalama 39,711,6 yıl; min-maks:22-62 yıl. Kadınlarda aşılanma oranı erkeklere göre anlamlı şekilde düşük bulunmuştur p0,006. Cinsel yönelime göre erkeklerle seks yapan erkeklerde MSM aşılanma oranı anlamlı şekilde daha yüksektir p0,002. Hastaların 30unun n12 COVID-19 aşısı yaptırmadığı tespit edilmiştir ve tümünün aşı yaptırma niyeti mevcuttur. Hastaların COVID-19 aşısı yaptırmama nedenleri incelendiğinde ilk sırayı 66,6lık n8 bir oran ile aşıların güvensiz olması almıştır. Sonuç: Bu çalışmamızda, HIV ile yaşayan bireylerde aşılama oranının toplumun aşılanma oranına göre daha yüksek olduğunu tespit ettik. HIV ile yaşayan bireylerdeki aşılanma oranının daha yüksek olma nedeninin her takipte tıbbi danışmanlık veriliyor olmasından kaynaklandığı düşünülmüştür.
