Willingness to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and associated factors in Migori County, Kenya: Analysis of cross-sectional observational survey data
We describe factors that contribute to willingness to get a new vaccination in a rural Kenyan community. Measuring vaccine willingness against covariables selected based on previous literature and programmatic experience provides hyper-local information to improve regional programming and future pandemic preparedness for organizations working in similar environments.
