Abstract
COVID-19 has cost trillions in economic loss globally and devastated entire nations. The pandemic now has the capacity to be much better controlled with vaccination. But the best vaccines - those against COVID-19 and other diseases - are of no use if the public will not, or cannot, take them. This research will help countries to gather a better understanding of why people don't vaccinate and what to do about it.
