Attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

The majority of the Australian public are willing to have a Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. It is unclear whether people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have the same attitude towards COVID-19 vaccination. A survey was performed to assess the attitude of patients with IBD towards COVID-19 vaccination in South Australia. Two-thirds of surveyed patients with IBD were willing to accept COVID-19 vaccine. Females and younger patients were less likely to accept the COVID-19 vaccine, as were those who had never had a discussion around vaccines.
