Assessment of the relationship between COVID-19 risk perception and vaccine acceptance: a cross-sectional study in Jordan

Abstract

COVID-19 risk perception and certain sociodemographic characteristics (i.e., being male, being young, and having children aged under 18 years) were found to be significantly associated with vaccine acceptance. Policymakers are recommended to develop public educational campaigns to enhance people's trust in and willingness to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
