In this large-scale multi-country study, we explored intent to accept a COVID-19 vaccine and the socio-demographic and emotional determinants of uptake for 17 countries.

The Vaccine Confidence Project team regularly publishes articles, reviews and other academic writing in leading journals. Our publications analyse global trends in vaccine confidence and provide deep insight into the spatio-temporal dynamics of vaccine confidence across the world.
A mixed-methods approach was used including an online survey in 15 countries which aimed to determine drivers of HCPs vaccine confidence and examine how these drivers vary across nations.
Little is known about how social media platforms can be used to increase COVID-19 vaccine intent. We aimed to investigate the effect of social media-based interventions on vaccine hesitancy in Japan.
There is considerable variation across, and even within, countries as to how HPV vaccination is offered and accepted. This review aimed to identify what interventions exist to promote uptake and how effective they are.
The objective of this systematic review was to examine documented uses and evidence on the effectiveness of conversational AI for vaccine communication.
In this review article, examples of hesitancy regarding the measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), human papillomavirus (HPV), and COVID-19 vaccines are used to explore the multifaceted issues that fuel vaccine hesitancy. Each of these examples is part of a larger, more complex story.
Japan has one of the highest vaccine hesitancy rates in the world. However, few studies have assessed how mobile messenger apps affect COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. This study used a cross-sectional survey to assess the impact of text messages from Corowa-kun – a free chatbot – on COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy amongst users.
This study aimed to assess changes in trends of parental attitudes toward routine childhood vaccines and COVID-19 vaccinations across different time periods in China.
COVID-19 vaccination policies have prompted much debate, yet there has been limited evaluation of their potential unintended consequences. Here, we outline a comprehensive set of hypotheses for why these policies may ultimately be counterproductive and harmful.
This study critically examined the challenges for advising evidence-informed decision-making (EIDM) in pandemic contexts, particularly around non-pharmaceutical control measures, from the perspective of experts advising policy-makers during COVID-19 globally.
This literature review (n = 89) summarises evidence on HCPs’ perceptions of the risks and benefits of vaccination, trust, and perceptions of mandatory vaccination in Europe.
In this perspective, we argue that the epidemiological and social crises brought about by COVID-19 have magnified widely held social anxieties and trust issues that, in the unique circumstances of this global pandemic, have exacerbated scepticism toward vaccines.
