Determinants of caregivers' acceptance of the malaria vaccine: The case of Bamenda and Bamenda III Health Districts in Cameroon

Most caregivers demonstrated high acceptance of the malaria vaccine, influenced by positive perceptions and trust in healthcare sources. However, misinformation and limited awareness remain barriers. To improve vaccine uptake, targeted health communication strategies should focus on enhancing information accuracy, engaging trusted health professionals, and leveraging mobile health tools. Strengthening community engagement and addressing misconceptions are essential to achieving higher vaccine coverage and advancing malaria control efforts, especially in the Bamenda and Bamenda III Health Districts.
