Introduction: Tetanus vaccine coverage in Vietnam has been declining in recent years due to a rapid population growth rate, shrinking budget, and inecient resource mobilization strategy. This study examined the uptake, demand, and willingness to pay (WTP) for tetanus vaccines in Vietnamese women of reproductive age as well as determined associated factors and assessed the feasibility of the long-term tetanus vaccine resource mobilization scheme. Methods: Cross-sectional data were obtained on 807 women of childbearing age in Hanoi, Vietnam in 2016. Tetanus vaccine uptake, demand, and willingness to pay were collected by using a structured questionnaire. Multivariable logistic and interval regression models were used to examine associated factors with vaccine uptake, demand, and WTP. Results: Of 807 participants, 42.4 and 64.8% had sucient tetanus vaccination (i.e., received at least three doses of vaccine) and were willing to pay for tetanus vaccination. The mean amount of WTP for one dose of tetanus was US$ 7.3 (95% CI = 6.7–7.9). Having children or being aware that the tetanus vaccine was free-of-charge were negatively associated with WTP for tetanus vaccine. Having a high school education, living in a rural area, and not being aware of vaccine prices or being aware that vaccines were provided freely reduced the amount of WTP. WTP increased among women receiving information from friends and relatives. Conclusion: Despite of exemption from the tetanus vaccination programs, this study indicated a low tetanus vaccination coverage and a moderate degree of WTP for tetanus vaccine among Vietnamese women of childbearing age.

Risk Management and Healthcare Policy
Purpose: New COVID-19 variants pose great challenges in protecting the success of vaccination programs. Awareness of community
becomes an important component to prevent the spread of COVID-19. This study aims to analyze people’s awareness of COVID-19
and identify the implications for optimal risk communication in Vietnam.
Study Methods and Materials: A total of 341 individuals participated in an online cross-sectional study. Community awareness on
COVID-19 was examined by using a structured questionnaire. Multivariable Tobit regression was used to examine associated factors
with community awareness.
Results: Our results indicated high levels of awareness of local COVID-19 situation, transmission risks, and preventive behavioral
practices during the first week of social isolation. Higher awareness of local pandemic situation was associated with female
respondents (Coef.: 6.19; 95% CI: 0.51; 11.87) and larger family sizes of above 5 people (Coef.: 9.00; −1.00; 19.00). Respondents
between 35–44 years old were shown to be less aware of preventive behavioral practices than other age groups, including the group of
participants above 44 years old (Coef.: −0.34; 95% CI: −0.67; −0.02). Lastly, participants who were “fairly satisfied” with information
resources had awareness levels of preventive behavioral practices lower than that of “unsatisfied” respondents (Coef.: −0.45; 95% CI:
0.74; −0.16).
Conclusion: This study offers crucial insights into the pandemic awareness of citizens and risk communication effectiveness during
COVID-19 in Vietnam. The study findings shall serve the development of policies and interventions aimed at empowering individuals
in the local and global fight against coronavirus

This study aimed to describe mental health service utilization and examine associated factors among students in Vietnam. Data were collected at eight universities in Hanoi, Vietnam, in 2018 using an administered questionnaire. The total number of participants was 9,120 (95.1% response rate). Among stu dents participating in our survey, 12.5% (95% CI: 10.9–14.1) with depression and/or anxiety symptoms used mental health service in the last 12 months. In the multivariable regression models, significant factors associated with mental health ser vice utilization were marital status, types of housemate, men tal health problems, physical activity, smoking status, and alcohol drinking. Our study made recommendations to stake holders for improving mental health services utilization among students in Vietnam. These findings had important implica tions for future research on factors associated with mental health service utilization among university students.
