Simple logistic regression on the binary intention of receiving free/self-paid COVID-19 vaccination was performed for each independent variable.
Multivariable logistic regression on the binary intention of receiving free/self-paid COVID-19 vaccines was performed for each independent variable, with age, sex, grade, history of being mandatorily quarantined due to COVID-19 and history of being diagnosed with COVID-19 being controlled for.
