Abstract
In this study examining public health workers' 2009 H1N1 and seasonal influenza vaccination uptake, a survey was conducted to assess flu vaccine acceptance, as well as behaviors and beliefs regarding acceptance, among public health workers in southeastern Tennessee. Factors found to be significantly associated with acceptance of the 2009 H1N1 vaccine were direct patient care, previous flu vaccination, vaccine safety concerns, and receipt of seasonal flu vaccine.
