“…In our study, COVID-19 vaccine was mostly believed to be as safe as the government portrays it to be. This was similar to findings in India [22,23]. This finding suggests that potential vaccine hesitancy in Nigeria may not be associated with mistrust in government.…”

Successful implementation of COVID-19 vaccines may be influenced by beliefs about it. This study assessed beliefs about COVID-19 vaccine in Nigeria and associated socio-demographic characteristics. It also evaluated socio-demographics as a predictive model for beliefs about the vaccine. This will provide insight to effective vaccine implementation measures. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among 410 participants. A two-part questionnaire was developed using Google forms and validated by pre-testing and face validity. The internet link was distributed through snow ball approach to consenting participants from the six geopolitical zones through online platforms. Descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression analysis were conducted using SPSS version 24 and statistical significance was set as p ≤ 0.05. A total of 410 respondents participated in the study. Total weighted beliefs about COVID-19 vaccine showed that the majority 337 (82.20 %) had positive beliefs about the vaccine, and this was associated with geopolitical region (p=0.002) and educational qualification (p=0.005). Socio-demographic characteristics was also found to be highly predictive of beliefs about the vaccine (68%). Socio-demographics predicts beliefs about COVID-19 with relatively high accuracy. Positive beliefs was mostly found, and this was associated with geopolitical region and educational qualification. Positive beliefs about the vaccine may enhance vaccine acceptance and cause a break in transmission dynamics of SARS-Cov-2 infection.

“…Perceived barriers were evaluated by three questions including vaccine safety, effectiveness, and the possibility of infection after vaccination. Many studies also found that doubts regarding vaccine safety and efficacy were the main reasons for vaccine reluctance (11,14,18,21,22,46,47). Therefore, healthcare providers should use face-to-face education, autodialers, mail, and text messages to emphasize the COVID-19 pandemic situation, the benefits of vaccination, and the safety and efficacy of vaccines, to address parental concerns about vaccines.…”

Background: This study aimed to explore the association between risk perception and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine hesitancy among reproductive women in China to supplement limited studies in this area.Methods: From December 14, 2020, to January 31, 2021, an anonymous cross-sectional online survey was conducted on COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy for children among reproductive women in China. We assessed risk perception, including perceived susceptibility, severity, barriers, and benefits using the health belief model, and then classified each variable into three groups (low, moderate, and high) based on tertiles. Information on sociodemographic characteristics, health status, and knowledge of COVID-19 was also collected. The Pearson χ2-test was used to compare vaccine hesitancy among the above mentioned factors. Logistic regression models were used to calculate the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of risk perception related to vaccine hesitancy after controlling for the above covariates.Results: Among 3,011 reproductive women, 8.44% (95%CI: 7.44. 9.43) had COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. Vaccine hesitancy was observed more in women who lived in eastern China (11.63%), aged >45 years (12.00%), had a lower than high school education level (12.77%), and a low score on knowledge of COVID-19 (12.22%). Vaccine hesitancy was associated with lower perceived susceptibility (moderate: aOR = 1.72, 95%CI: 1.17–2.54, P = 0.0061; low: aOR = 2.44, 95%CI: 1.60–3.70, P < 0.0001), high perceived barriers (aOR = 2.86, 95%CI: 1.57–5.22, P < 0.0001), and lower perceived benefit (moderate: aOR = 3.29, 95%CI: 2.30–4.70, P < 0.0001; low: aOR = 4.59, 95%CI: 2.98–7.07, P < 0.0001), but not with perceived severity.Conclusions: Although the proportion of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy for children among Chinese reproductive women was <1 out of 10, to improve COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy, our findings suggest that tailored public health measures are needed to increase perceived susceptibility and benefit, and decrease perceived barriers among reproductive women.

“…The articles of included studies were published in 2020 (n = 18) and in 2021 (n = 154). The studies involved 814,691 participants from 50 countries across six regions in the world represented as African region (n = 14) (17-30), American region (n = 34) (7,, Eastern Mediterranean region (n = 33) (8, 64-95), European region (n = 46) (96-141), South-East Asian region (n = 8) (5,(142)(143)(144)(145)(146)(147)(148) and Western Pacific region (n = 31) (149-179). There were two global studies (180,181), one study combined countries in the European region and Western Pacific region (182), one study involved countries in the American region and Western Pacific region (183), one study involved the African region and Middle East countries (184) and one study involved countries in the African region, American region and South-East Asian region (185).…”

IntroductionVaccination is an essential intervention to curb the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This review aimed to estimate the pooled proportion of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance worldwide.MethodsA systematic search of the MEDLINE (PubMed) database using “COVID-19,” “vaccine” and “acceptance” to obtain original research articles published between 2020 and July 2021. Only studies with full text and that were published in English were included. The Joanna Briggs Institute meta-analysis was used to assess the data quality. The meta-analysis was performed using generic inverse variance with a random-effects model using the Review Manager software.ResultsA total of 172 studies across 50 countries worldwide were included. Subgroup analyses were performed with regard to vaccine acceptance, regions, population, gender, vaccine effectiveness, and survey time. The pooled proportion of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance was 61% (95% CI: 59, 64). It was higher in Southeast Asia, among healthcare workers, in males, for vaccines with 95% effectiveness, and during the first survey.ConclusionCOVID-19 vaccine acceptance needs to be increased to achieve herd immunity to protect the population from the disease. It is crucial to enhance public awareness of COVID-19 vaccination and improve access to vaccines.Systematic Review RegistrationPROSPERO 2021, identifier CRD42021268645.
