Herpes zoster vaccine awareness and determinants among chinese adults aged ≥ 60 years: a cross-sectional study
The awareness of HZV among older adults in urban China is inadequate and inequitably distributed. Significant disparities in awareness, which were linked to socioeconomic status and occupational history, were identified. These findings pinpoint specific, underserved populations that should be prioritized for targeted health education strategies to bridge the knowledge gap and promote informed decision-making regarding HZ vaccination.
