Article Synopsis
- India launched its COVID-19 vaccination drive on January 16, 2021, focusing on adults over 18, leading to over 1 billion first doses and nearly 950 million second doses, but only 217 million precaution doses were administered, indicating a significant gap.
- The Ministry of Health & Family Welfare conducted an exploratory study across six states to identify the facilitators and barriers affecting the uptake of precaution doses among adults, utilizing in-depth interviews and focus group discussions among various community members and health officials.
- Preliminary results suggested that an increase in COVID-19 cases motivated some community members to pursue precaution doses, highlighting the need for improved communication and outreach in future immunization campaigns.
