Acceptability of a chikungunya vaccine and dengue vaccine among travelers in Martinique (French West Indies), for the travel and for their home territory
In both contexts (travel and home territory), acceptability was higher for dengue than for chikungunya vaccination. Acceptability for both vaccines was also higher for the home territory than for travel to areas with exposure risk. Few data are available on chikungunya vaccine acceptability. We found similar acceptability for this vaccine in Martinique as reported in the United States Virgin Islands (56%), an overseas territory of the United States in the Caribbean, and in La Réunion, another French overseas territory in the Indian Ocean (60.5% in the hypothetical full-reimbursement scenario).
