Description
Summary:After almost 2 years since the first COVID-19 case outbreak, Malaysia had finally received the COVID-19 vaccines. There are several brands of vaccines from various manufacturers that have been tested and approved by the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA). This study is conducted to identify the level of public's awareness and acceptance towards the COVID-19 vaccine. 44 online survey questions were prepared including questions related to demographic background. The Google Form survey was disseminated to family and friends via social media platforms such as WhatsApp, Twitter and Instagram. A number of 405 respondents had answered the survey resulting in a positive result on the awareness (M = 3.60) and acceptance (M = 3.58) of the public towards COVID-19 vaccine. © 2024 American Institute of Physics Inc..
