Factors Associated with COVID-19 Vaccination
This special issue belongs to the section "COVID-19 Vaccines and Vaccination".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Vaccination against COVID-19 is a global issue. Both the inhabitants of rich countries, as well as their vulnerable populations, and those of emerging countries have been and are concerned. Intrinsic and extrinsic barriers may have been encountered.
Apart from effective access to and cost of vaccinations, a wide range of determinants may have impacted the effective distribution of COVID-19 vaccination and its boosters. In this Special Issue, we invite you to submit your work on the determinants of COVID-19 vaccination for evaluation. In particular, work that sheds light on the effect of social or geographical determinants, and on vaccine hesitancy would be appreciated. This Special Issue aims to make a useful contribution to understanding the determinants of vaccination in order to prepare for future health crises.
