“…The lack of public understanding of vaccination is one of the issues that the Indonesian Ministry of Health must address as it is one of the factors as to why the Indonesian community can easily accept hoaxes related to the vaccination (Susilo, Putranto and Navarro, 2021). Take the example in the city of Depok, it is known that the final result after a research was carried out was the amount of people who had received the 1st and 2nd vaccinations in the city of Depok starting from January 14, 2021 to August 21, 2021, amounted to only 613,275 out of the population of 1,886,890 (Nalawati & Liliana, 2021).…”

The world is currently facing the COVID-19 pandemic and it has become easy to spread hoaxes on the internet. However, there are no papers that talk about its impact on COVID-19 vaccination. This study aims to investigate the impact of the spread of false news on the COVID-19 vaccination in Indonesia. An online survey with 396 respondents was done to investigate the frequency of COVID-19 vaccination news encounter and the trust towards the news. 17 of the respondents were then invited to an interview. The findings showed that 43.7% of the respondents are almost always exposed to news about COVID-19 vaccination and 28.7% almost always believed it. These news have created concerns, misunderstandings and noise, delaying COVID-19 vaccination in Indonesia. It is recommended to prepare more in-depth questions to be asked to respondents and conduct a longer survey. This study needs more respondents to have more validated generalization.

Background Confusion of information has also colored the course of the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia. The study analyzes the relationship between media exposure and information clarity about Covid-19 in Indonesia. Methods The study collected extensive data (n = 5,397). The study determines information clarity about Covid-19 based on respondents' admissions. There were four types of media exposure analyzed: frequency of reading a newspaper/magazine, frequency of listening to a radio, frequency of watching television, and frequency of internet use. The study carried out a binary logistic regression test in the final stage. Results The results show read a newspaper/magazine every day is 1.670 times more likely than reading a newspaper/magazine > five days a week to get precise information about Covid-19. Reading a newspaper/magazine 2–3 days a week is 1.386 times more likely than reading a newspaper/magazine > five days a week to get precise information about Covid-19. Reading a newspaper/magazine 4–5 days a week is 1.470 times more likely than reading a newspaper/magazine > five days a week to get precise information about Covid-19. Watching television 2 to 3 days a week is 1.601 times more likely than watching television > five days a week to get clear details about Covid-19. Watching television 4 to 5 days a week are 1.452 times more likely than watching television > five days a week to get precise information about Covid-19. Conclusion The study concluded two types of media exposure related to information clarity about Covid-19 in Indonesia: the frequency of reading newspapers and watching television.

“…12 These misleading information significantly influenced the government's target of vaccinating more than 70% of the population. 13,14 The existence of a budget constraint, where part of the cost is borne by the community, posed another primary concern. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the determinants of willingness to receive and pay for the vaccine.…”

Background: The occurrence of various deceptive news on COVID-19 vaccines adversely impact public mindset. Prior to the mass vaccination of Indonesian government, perception of the willingness to be vaccinated and its determinant were not widely explored.Objectives: This study is aimed at evaluating the determinants of willingness to receive and pay for COVID-19 vaccines, prior to the commencement of widespread vaccination in Indonesia.Method: This study applied a cross-sectional design to assess the inhibiting factors of both the willingness to receive and pay for COVID-19 vaccines. Statistical analysis was conducted using bivariate and multivariate methods. Furthermore, a qualitative approach was also adopted to categorize open-ended themes on the determinant of willingness to pay for COVID-19 vaccines.Results: Based on the determinants of willingness to be vaccinated, the following results were obtained, including the occupation of health workers (OR=3.638; p=0.000), civil servants (OR=1.776; p=0.030), perception on COVID-19 as dangerous (OR=2.161; p=0.010), perception on the vaccines as effective (OR= 13,156; p=0.000), perception on vaccine as safe (OR=15,769; p=0.000). In terms of the determinants of willingness to pay, the following results were recorded, including respondents’ age of 40 years (OR=2.048; p=0.000), income of IDR.2,500,000 (OR=1.631;p=0.002), experience from the interaction with COVID-19 patients (OR=1.422; p=0.013), perception on the virus as dangerous (OR=2.211; p=0.000), perception on health protocol discipline (OR=1.834; p=0.014), and perception on the vaccine as effective (OR=1.760; p=0.011). Furthermore, 6 concerns were raised on the willingness/reluctance to pay for the vaccine, such as the perception of the vaccines’ effectiveness and safety, equity, suspicion surrounding the pandemic and vaccine, optional measures in combating the outbreak, personal circumstances and nationalism. Conclusion: The determinants of willingness to receive the COVID-19 vaccine included the occupation of health workers and civil servants, perception of the disease as dangerous, perception of the vaccine as effective and safe. Meanwhile, the factors of willingness to pay included the age range of 40 years, high income, interaction with COVID-19 patients, perception of health protocol discipline and the vaccines’ effectiveness.
