What is COVID‐19 vaccine acceptance among people living with HIV: A systematic review and meta‐analysis about?

## Abstract ## Objective To assess coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) vaccine acceptance among people living with HIV (PLHIV) worldwide. ## Methods We searched MEDLINE, PSYINFO, CINHAL, Scopus and EMBASE databases and other sources including free Google search and subject‐specific journals from January 2020 to September 2021. The study population included adults (aged 18+ years) living with HIV and evaluated for COVID‐19 vaccine acceptance. A random effect meta‐analysis model was used to estimate the pooled COVID‐19 vaccine acceptance rate. Subgroup analyses were performed, and factors associated with COVID‐19 vaccine hesitancy underwent narrative analysis. Of 558 initial records, 14 studies were eligible for review. ## Results The overall pooled COVID‐19 vaccine acceptance rate among adult PLHIV was 62% (95% confidence interval [CI], 56%–69%). In subgroup analysis, the estimated pooled COVID‐19 vaccine acceptance rate was higher in high‐income countries: 63% (95% CI, 55%–70%) versus 62% (95% CI, 54%–71%) in low‐ and middle‐income countries, and in studies conducted in 2022 (66% [95% CI, 58%–75%]) than in studies conducted in 2021 (57% [95% CI, 47%–68%]).
