“…One of the main ndings from this study is the importance of trust in different authorities and the information surrounding COVID-19; which is in line with the current evidence on the role of trust barriers in COVID-19 vaccine acceptability (44). Our results showed the in uential role of general practitioners' recommendation to get vaccinated, as previously demonstrated in the literature for other vaccines.…”

“…The study reported that there was consistent evidence of elevated levels of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among Black/Afro-Caribbean ethnic groups in the US and the UK. Asians in the US had the highest intention rate to get COVID-19 vaccine (81%) compared to other ethnic groups (40-68%) [24]. Lack of con dence, mainly due to mistrust of government and health systems coupled with poor communication were the main barriers to vaccination uptake among persons of Black ethnicity and migrant origin populations [24].…”

Lack of con dence, mainly due to mistrust of government and health systems coupled with poor communication were the main barriers to vaccination uptake among persons of Black ethnicity and migrant origin populations [24]. Some other factors associated with lower vaccination intentions in the high-income countries were identi ed, including having no health insurance, unemployment, lower socio-economic position, female gender, younger age, medical mistrust, less con dence in vaccine e cacy, and less trust in pharmaceutical companies producing the vaccines [25][26][27][28][29][30][31].…”

“…Emerging evidence, including from our pre-engagement work done to inform this study (reported elsewhere (2, 3)) attributes lower COVID-19 vaccine uptake rates in minoritised and migrant populations to a lack of confidence – specifically due to the spread of misinformation and conspiracy theories, mistrust in the medical establishment and government, and concerns about side effects – and access barriers, including physical access, language and communication barriers (9, 24-29). In the UK, community-research partnerships have been mobilised to engage with ethnic communities and address the disparities in COVID-19 vaccine uptake including through outreach and the development of culturally relevant health information and messages, (30, 31) and public bodies and charities have now translated official information and guidance into multiple languages and developed toolkits (32-34).…”
