Note. Significant Odds Ratios (ORs) (p < .05) are bolded.
Strongly disagree/disagree (vs. strongly agree/agree or don't know) with the statement, “If a vaccine were available to prevent COVID-19, I would not get it”; 18% strongly disagreed, 22% disagreed, and 25% said “don't know”.
Response of “yes” (vs. “no” or “don't know/not sure”) to the question, “Would you be willing to get a COVID-19 vaccine a year from now?”; 30% responded yes, 32% responded no, and 38% responded don't know.
0 = Not Important to 100 = Very Important.
1= Few (0–20%), 2 = Less than half (21–40%), 3 = Around half (41–60%), 4 = More than half (61–80%), 5 = Most or nearly all (81–100%).
