ConjointVac survey among 4346 healthcare and welfare sector workers in France, 18 December 2020 to 1 February 2021.

*p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p≤0.001.

Lecture note: 18.9% of women and 11.9% of men refused the hypothetical vaccine in all scenarios (serial non-demanders).

*Uniform responders are defined as those either refusing (serial non-demanders) or accepting (serial demanders) vaccination on all eight scenarios.

†Multivariate parsimonious model does not include COVID-19 vaccination intention due to collinearity with outcome variable.

‡Confidence in authorities to manage sanitary and economic crisis due to COVID-19, assessed as 0–10; low (0–3), medium (4–6), high (7–10).

§General worry about COVID-19 epidemic; assessed as 0–10, low (0–3), medium (4–6), high (7–10).
