Summary

This trial tests whether simple nudges (reminder messages) and motivational interviewing can increase flu vaccination among 4,050 healthcare workers in Chinese community hospitals. In phase 1, hospitals get either standard nudges, personalized nudges with a chatbot, or no reminders. In phase 2, unvaccinated workers get motivational interviewing or no extra contact. The goal is to find effective ways to protect healthcare workers and their patients from the flu.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
behavioural interventions (nudge messages and motivational interviewing)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide simple, low-cost ways to boost flu vaccination rates among healthcare workers, reducing flu spread in hospitals.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioural study, not a medical treatment. Results depend on human behaviour and may not apply outside China or to other groups.
