This study explored the beliefs and experiences of the COVID-19 vaccine, including hesitancy and acceptance toward vaccinations, in a slum of Karachi, Pakistan. The findings of this study highlight that hesitancy was linked to personal belief systems, vaccine mistrust and public perceptions. In contrast, vaccine acceptance was linked to knowledge and awareness about the vaccine and trusted sources of information. This research identifies a clear need for co-designed health communication for vaccines to design and deliver people-centered interventions to dispel the COVID-19 misconceptions and vaccine hesitancy.
