Perceptions and Representations of Vaccination Against COVID-19

Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal Creteil14 enrolled

Overview

SARS COV2, the virus that causes COVID-19, was first described in Wuhan, China. For this pathology, which causes severe respiratory infections, preventing the transmission of the virus has become fundamental, that is why vaccines have been developed. In France, this vaccination campaign took place in a context where the lack of confidence in vaccination is high: According to a November 2020 IFOP poll, only 41% of French respondents were willing to be vaccinated against COVID-19. To our knowledge, there are still few qualitative studies on vaccination on the current issue of vaccination against COVID-19.
