The aim of this study is to investigate public knowledge
and perceptions of both the COVID-19 pandemic itself and
COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among adults (aged 18
years and above) in 15 African countries. This study and its findings will
help identify knowledge gaps, beliefs and attitudes that
can help inform Africa CDC as well as other immunization
stakeholders in their strategies for supporting the roll-out
of Covid-19 vaccines in the continent. Countries covered: Northern Africa region: Morocco and Tunisia; Eastern Africa region:
Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda; Central Africa region:
Gabon and DR Congo; Southern Africa region: South Africa and
Malawi; Western Africa region: Nigeria, Niger, Cote d’Ivoire,
Burkina Faso and Senegal. The study was conducted by ORB International in
collaboration with the Vaccine Confidence Project™ at the
London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine on behalf
of Africa CDC, who funded this study with additional
support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
