Background: Indonesia has not met its vaccination rate target, falling short of 25% in 2021. This study aims to assess all the contributing factors towards vaccine acceptance, hesitance, and refusal in a single vaccination center in Jambi, Indonesia.

Materials And Methods: We collected primary data from respondents directly through a structured questionnaire. This was a cross-sectional study with total sampling. We included adults vaccinated for the first dose with CoronaVac in Puskesmas Putri Ayu. The data was collected between March 15th and June 3rd, 2021. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was done to analyse the predictive models.

Results: There are 522 respondents included in this study. Nearly half of the respondents are male (52.1%) and mostly in the age category of 36-45 years old (21.1%). A total of 443 respondents (84.9%) are "vaccine acceptance," while the rest constitutes "vaccine hesitance and refusal." Multivariate analysis reveals that respondents who obtain permission from work or school to get vaccinated are more likely to be "vaccine acceptance" with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.76 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08-2.91; p-value 0.025), and respondents with ≥ 2 comorbidities are less likely to be "vaccine acceptance" with an OR of 0.09 (95% CI 0.01-0.64; p-value 0.015).

Conclusions: There is a high vaccine acceptance in this study. Difficulties in getting a work permit and the presence of ≥ 2 comorbidities decrease the willingness to be vaccinated for COVID-19.
