According to Dr. John Litaker, the first author and health scientist for this publication, “We need to understand from the individual’s perspective of why they choose or not to obtain the vaccine.” In this study, 685 persons were asked to provide the reason for obtain, refusing, or remaining undecided about obtaining the COVID-19 vaccine with this data stratified across eight domains using an inductive analytic process.
