ABSTRACT
• Vaccine hesitancy refers to the delay in acceptance or refusal of vaccination despite availability of vaccination services. • Vaccine hesitancy globally is not new; the emergence of the COVID-19 virus and subsequent vaccine rollout has exacerbated this phenomenon. • Globally, COVID-19 is responsible for 6.55M deaths. Trinidad and Tobago has recorded high mortality rates due to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. 182,181 total positive cases have been reported; 4,207 cases resulted in a death. • The country's vaccination rate is 51.2%; 716,991 persons have a completed vaccine regime. • Understanding why persons are hesitant toward the COVID-19 vaccine can aid in increasing vaccination rates in an attempt to acquire herd immunity.
