Abstract
Healthcare workers (HCWs) are vital in providing guidance and recommendations to patients and the wider community about vaccination, which includes giving correct information on the risks and benefits of the vaccine. As they are crucial players in vaccine delivery and have a large impact on vaccine acceptability in the community, it is important to know their attitudes towards vaccination.
