What factors are driving vaccine hesitancy?
In our large-scale survey, we asked all participants if they had already receiving at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine or if they were planning on receiving a dose. For any participants who answered that they were unsure if they wanted to receive the vaccine or sure that they did not want to receive the vaccine, we asked them to share why they were not obtaining the vaccine. Some frequent words in the responses are shown on the right.
Using the open-ended responses and the Twitter handles shared by respondents, we can expand our understanding of vaccine hesitancy by analyzing the respondents’ open-ended responses and social media posts. As we begin to understand the factors contribute to vaccine hesitancy, we can make recommendations about how to reduce this hesitancy.
