ABSTRACT
The conducted review of known methods and systems showed that there are currently no tools for decision-making support for necessity/optionality/contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19. The paper models the process of decision-making support for necessity/optionality/contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19, which is a theoretical basis for the formation of questionnaires for gathering information about the person who plans to be vaccinated, for organizing the analysis of this person's answers, as well as for decision-making support for necessity/optionality/contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19. Questionnaires for determining the necessity/optionality of vaccination against COVID-19 and for determining the contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19 were developed taking into account the current legal norms of Ukraine, as well as rules for analyzing the answers to questions of questionnaires for determining the necessity/optionality of vaccination against COVID-19 and the answers to the questions of questionnaires for determining the contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19. The developed rules make it possible to form a set of work's categories of the person, for whom the necessity/optionality of vaccination against COVID-19 is determined, and a set of medical diagnoses-contraindications of a person, for whom a contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19 is determined, which are grounds for making a decision about the necessity/optionality/contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19. The scheme of process of decision-making support for necessity/optionality/contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19 has been developed, according to which a person who plans to be vaccinated can automatically and free of charge determine the necessity/optionality of vaccination against COVID-19, as well as the possibility/contraindication of vaccination against COVID-19 based on the legal norms in force in Ukraine, i.e. can independently make a reasoned decision regarding vaccination against COVID-19. © 2022 Copyright for this paper by its authors.
ABSTRACT
The conducted analysis of civil law grounds on the need and possibility of vaccination against Covid'19 in Ukraine made it possible to determine the categories of workers subject to compulsory vaccination, as well as a list of medical contraindications and warnings to vaccination against Covid'19. Developed Covid'19 vaccination decision-making method based on civil law provides: a conclusion on the mandatory or optional depending on the profession and place of work of the patient (but desirability) vaccination from Covid'19;conclusion on the possibility or contraindications to vaccination from Covid'19 - depending on the existing diseases and the current state of health of the patient;conclusion on the type of contraindication and its duration - in the case of a conclusion on contraindications to vaccination from Covid'19. Developed Covid'19 vaccination decision-making subsystem based on civil law provides a conclusion on whether or not vaccination from Covid'19 is mandatory or optional from the point of view of profession and place of work (but desirability);conclusion on the possibility or contraindications to vaccination from Covid'19;conclusion on the type of contraindication and its duration. So the subsystem will be useful for patients who, truthfully answering questions from the subsystem, will receive a conclusion on the need and possibility of vaccination from Covid'19 them or their relatives, as well as for family physicians, which will reduce the burden during patient counselling and make it easier to answer questions about the need and possibility of vaccination, as they will no longer need to know all the current legislation and civil law.
