Sociocultural and sociodemographic features that are heterogeneously associated with oral cholera vaccine acceptance across three endemic African settings at the medium price of USD 4–5

Figures in bold represent associations with p < 0.05 for individual settings

SE-DRC Southeastern Democratic Republic of Congo; W-Kenya Western Kenya

aVariables with heterogeneity (p-value < 0.1) and a significant estimate (p < 0.05) in at least one of the settings are presented. Each row represents an association of the variable with anticipated OCV acceptance and each row is not adjusted for other variables in the table

bSetting-specific logistic regression coefficient with 95 % confidence interval

cIndividual estimates for Zanzibar have been presented in Schaetti et al. [16]
