Abstract

The SARS-COV-2/ COVID-19 pandemic is a global challenge affecting hundreds of millions globally. The COVID-19 pandemic that began in Wuhan in China in 2019 has continued to pose a health concern and economic meltdown across the globe. Globally, numerous vaccines have been successfully rolled out against many vaccine-preventable diseases at all stages of human development. Despite the number of approved SARS-COV-2 vaccines, the seeming success in the global rollout, and the inoculation of billions globally, COVID-19 vaccination interventions still need improvement. However, for total control and eradication, there is a need to review the campaign methodologies to identify the drivers and inhibitors of COVID-19 vaccinations to promote booster uptake. Questions concerning the acceptability of the covid-19 vaccination were posed to respondents using a convenience sample method. This study contributes to the African vaccination literature and descriptively shows the drivers and inhibitors of COVID-19 vaccination.
