During vaccine introduction in India, healthcare and front-line workers were prioritized to receive the vaccine first.

For Covishield, 86.5% took the precautionary dose within two weeks, with a mean uptake time of 9.1 days. Younger age groups and females showed higher uptake times. For Covaxin, 57% took the precautionary dose within two weeks, with a mean uptake time of 32.98 days. Younger age groups had higher uptake times, while females had lower uptake times for the precautionary dose. Cox regression identified younger age as a significant predictor of delayed uptake for Covishield.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>HCWs showed good overall acceptance of precautionary doses, with improved uptake compared to initial doses. Females and younger age groups generally had longer uptake times. These findings highlight the need for targeted education and risk communication strategies to ensure timely vaccination among HCWs. The study also highlights the value of having good data stored in vaccination platforms, analyzed, and interpreted for informed decision-making in future health campaigns.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jfmpc.jfmpc_1913_24","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,19]],"date-time":"2025-07-19T06:00:39Z","timestamp":1752904839000},"page":"2721-2728","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Time-to-event analysis of COVID-19 precautionary dose vaccination among healthcare workers in a teaching institute of a metropolitan city in India, using Co-WIN data"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Chinnu Sara","family":"Varughese","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, Pushpagiri Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre, Thiruvalla, Kerala, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rashmi","family":"Priya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, Madhubani Medical College and Hospital, Keshopur, Bihar, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandeep","family":"Mishra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, Seth GS Medical College and KEM Hospital, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Maria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, Seth GS Medical College and KEM Hospital, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"847","DOI":"10.3390\/vaccines12080847","article-title":"Integrating digital health solutions with immunization strategies:Improving immunization coverage and monitoring in the post-COVID-19 era","volume":"12","author":"Pavia","year":"2024","journal-title":"Vaccines"},{"key":"R2-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"n2670","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.n2670","article-title":"Covid-19 vaccination should be mandatory for healthcare workers","volume":"375","author":"Sokol","year":"2021","journal-title":"BMJ"},{"key":"R3-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1437","DOI":"10.3390\/vaccines9121437","article-title":"COVID-19 vaccine booster hesitancy (VBH) of Healthcare Workers in Czechia:National cross-sectional study","volume":"9","author":"Klugar","year":"2021","journal-title":"Vaccines"},{"key":"R4-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e83","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa2114114","article-title":"waning of BNT162b2 vaccine protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection in Qatar","volume":"385","author":"Chemaitelly","year":"2021","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"key":"R5-20250804"},{"key":"R9-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"464","DOI":"10.3390\/vaccines10030464","article-title":"COVID-19 vaccine booster hesitancy among healthcare workers:A retrospective observational study in Singapore","volume":"10","author":"Koh","year":"2022","journal-title":"Vaccines (Basel)"},{"key":"R13-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"185","DOI":"10.1017\/S0950268801006550","article-title":"Detection of delayed vaccinations:A new approach to visualize vaccine uptake","volume":"128","author":"Laubereau","year":"2002","journal-title":"Epidemiol Infect"},{"key":"R18-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3294","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vaccine.2022.02.014","article-title":"Effectiveness of Covishield vaccine in preventing Covid-19 \u2013A test-negative case-control study","volume":"40","author":"Pramod","year":"2022","journal-title":"Vaccine"},{"key":"R19-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2107","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vaccine.2022.02.023","article-title":"Impact of prior vaccination with CovishieldTM and Covaxin\u00aeon mortality among symptomatic COVID-19 patients during the second wave of the pandemic in South India during April and May 2021:A cohort study","volume":"40","author":"Abhilash","year":"2022","journal-title":"Vaccine"},{"key":"R20-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"100361","DOI":"10.1016\/j.lansea.2024.100361","article-title":"Immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines BBV152 (COVAXIN\u00ae) and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (COVISHIELD\u2122) in seronegative and seropositive individuals in India:A multicentre, nonrandomised observational study","volume":"22","author":"Asokan","year":"2024","journal-title":"Lancet Reg Health Southeast Asia"},{"key":"R21-20250804","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"89","DOI":"10.47203\/IJCH.2023.v35i01.016","article-title":"Acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination among health care workers in India","volume":"35","author":"Tiwari","year":"2023","journal-title":"Indian J.
