“…Thus, it indirectly shows people's trust in scientists' ability to manufacture vaccines and their belief in vaccine efficiency. This finding supports the stage model of behaviour change (Kelly et al, 2003).

“…According to the theory of planned behaviour (Mao et al, 2021), if people perceive benefits of a specific behaviour such as pressure from society or social group to adopt particular behaviours, and are capable of adopting that behaviour, they will practice social distancing during the pandemic.

Background: COVID-19 is a deadly viral infection that kills many people throughout the globe. The goal of this study was to find out how people in Pakistan felt about the COVID-19 vaccine. Method: Convenience and respondent-driven sampling method was used to conduct an online survey with 15 closed- and open-ended questions to a sample of 330 participants. The proportion of people who had a good attitude towards vaccination vs. those who had a negative attitude towards vaccination was revealed by the closed-ended questions. The open-ended questions elicited qualitative data on why people accepted or rejected the vaccination. Results: 62.9% of the respondents intended to use the COVID-19 vaccine and around 80% were younger than 50 years. 71.3% married, and 69.3% of the working population were willing to accept vaccination. Males are 1.97 times more likely (OR: 1.97, CI: 1.08-3.58) to use COVID-19 vaccine than females. Higher age groups were more likely to accept vaccination. The working population (82%) was more likely (OR: 1.82, CI: 1.08-3.58) to use the COVID-19 vaccine than the non-working population. Conclusion: This study helps to identify the attitudes of people and has implications for COVID-19 immunization efforts in Pakistan for various population segments.
