Abstract

A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried on 1020 Vietnamese people aged 18 or older from August 28 to September 7, 2021. The purpose of the study was to determine the rate and some factors related to the acceptance of vaccination against COVID-19 made in Vietnam. Results: 86.37% of the research subjects were willing to have vaccination against COVID-19 with Made-in-Vietnam vacine. Factors related to the acceptance rate of vaccination against COVID-19 with made-in-Vietnam vaccine can be listed as following: the acceptance rate of the group of 30-39 years olds was 0.62 times lower than that of the group of 18-29 years olds (p<0.05), the acceptance rate of people in rural areas was 1.92 times higher than that of cities (p<0.05), the acceptance rate of female research subjects was 2.21 times higher than that of males (p<0.0010), the acceptance rate of self-employed workers was 1.79 times higher than civil servants (p<0.05), chronic diseases made the acceptance rate of those with chronic diseases  0.39 times lower than that of healthy ones (p<0.001); the acceptance rate of people with a history of allergies and those being doubtful of their allergies were 0.37 (p<0.001) times and 0.49 times (p<0.05) lower that of people without any history of allergies, respectively. Conclusion: The results of the study showed that the percentage of research subjects who accepted made-in-Vietname vaccinations was quite high. The sifnificant factors associated with vaccination acceptance rates were region, sex, chronic disease status, and allergy history.
