WHAT I CAN DO

MY FUTURE RESEARCH

PROBLEM: WHY DO SOME PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO BE VACCINATED AGAINST COVID-19?

WHY DOES THE STUDY NEED TO BE CONDUCTED:

There is a need to conduct a study of this problem on why some people refused to be
vaccinated against Covid-19 in order to determine the variables affecting the likelihood of
refusal and indecision toward a vaccine against COVID-19 and to determine the acceptance of
the vaccine for different scenarios of effectiveness and side effects.

WHAT BENEFIT/S CAN THE STUDY PROVIDE TO THE COMMUNITY OR SOCIETY?

The benefits of this study to the community and society are the necessary information
in as much as this study provides evidence regarding the importance of rigorous human testing
for any vaccine, and the significance of communication with society regarding its side effects.
Collectively, these will directly affect individuals' vaccination preferences and decisions. It will
also help reveal the health beliefs that positively or negatively affect the refusal and hesitancy
of a hypothetical COVID-19 vaccine. These should be used in formulating public health policies,
and specifically in designing promotional strategies for the vaccine.

HOW DO YOU PLAN TO CONDUCT YOUR STUDY?

This is a cross – sectional study. Given the pandemic and some movement restrictions
in areas under Alert levels, this research study will be conducted through a self – applied online
questionnaire available to respondents 18 years old and older, through the use of social media,
through a period of two (2) months.
