The implementation of a vaccine against COVID-19 is one of the most important health strategies to mitigate the spread of the disease. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of the intention to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and its predictors in older Peruvian adults. This is a cross-sectional study, where information was collected through an online survey regarding vaccination intention of the participants, as well as sociodemographic and psychological variables. A multiple regression analysis was applied to identify predictors of intention to be vaccinated against COVID-19. We evaluated 245 participants, who had a mean age of 72.74 years old (SD = 6.66). 65.5% of these older adults expressed a high likelihood of accepting vaccination, while 20.9% expressed a low likelihood of accepting vaccination, and 13.6% were hesitant. Eleven predictors were identified that explained 66.69% of the intention to vaccinate against COVID-19. This identified place of residence, perceived likelihood of contracting COVID-19, severity of previous infection with COVID-19, fear of the disease, previous refusal of a vaccine, concerns about vaccine sales and speculation, and trust toward vaccines against COVID-19, as the main predictors. Our results show that confidence in vaccines and previous vaccine refusal are relevant predictors of intention to vaccinate against COVID-19 in older adults; these findings may be useful to guide the development of campaigns for the immunization of this vulnerable group in the current pandemic. © 2021, Associação Brasileira de Psicologia.

Con los recientes acuerdos del gobierno peruano con los laboratorios Sinopharm, Pfizer y Astrazeneca para la adquisición de vacunas contra la COVID-19, surge la pregunta de si un número suficiente de personas estarían dispuestas a ser inmunizadas para controlar la pandemia y la manera de garantizar que la población esté adecuadamente informada sobre la vacuna1.

The school project to theme vaccination to second grade of primary school and secondary school This thesis deals with the theme vaccination, its history and principles. The process of immunization is typically made by the administration of vaccines, given in certain time intervals that are determined in accordance with the rules of law. Before vaccine administration, vaccine should be thoroughly checked to protect security of patient's health. Ongoing research and advanced development projects help fight against diseases to protect the human organism. One of the themes that plays role in the vaccination is the financing of research and development as well as financing immunizations itself. As vaccination is as important for adults as it is for children, providing all informations to students is very necessary. To reach this point succesfully, the teching project (described more specifically in this work) is one of the possible ways. However, as project itself has its advantages as well as disadvantages, specific attitude of students and teachers is required accordingly. There are three different projects on vaccinations topics described in the thesis. These three projects were realized in three types of schools: secondary grammar school, third class of central medical lyce and eight class of...
