Few studies have examined how trust in authorities changed over the pandemic. This study investigated the trajectory of public trust in the Singapore government's vaccine recommendations during this period.

Vaccine hesitancy primarily consists of confidence, complacency, and convenience, including geographical accessibility. However, few studies in developed countries have focused on the association between geographical accessibility to vaccination services and vaccination status and previous studies have shown conflicting results. This cross-sectional study aimed to clarify the association between the number of medical facilities within a 15-minute driving distance from the place of residence and influenza vaccination status, using a large nationwide internet survey in Japan ( = 27,440).

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) stresses the importance of worldwide vaccine coverage of coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) vaccination.

This study investigated the determinants of psychological antecedents and other factors behind COVID-19 vaccination and their role in vaccine coverage in MENA.

The management of hypertensive disease in pregnancy is currently guided by practice recommendations based largely on observational data from a half century ago and has changed only superficially since that time. These recommendations are both narrowly prescriptive (women without traditional features of severe disease should all be delivered at exactly 37 weeks) and at the same time frustratingly ambiguous (the presence of epigastric pain unresponsive to repeat analgesics precludes expectant management at any gestational age, regardless of laboratory studies). Guidelines that ignore recent data from the obstetric, pediatric, and internal medicine literature too often lead practitioners to be more aggressive than necessary in the delivery of very premature pregnancies, and, conversely, more complacent than patient safety would support in prolonging pregnancy with advanced fetal maturity.
