Globally, the introduction of the Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine within one year of the pandemic brought doubts to the general population including health professionals. Even though Health Care Workers (HCWs) are at a high risk of contracting and transmitting the coronavirus due to their work, their COVID-19 vaccine uptake is unknown. This study aimed to determine the uptake of the COVID-19 vaccine and identify factors associated with uptake among HCWs at Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) in Blantyre, Malawi.
