A survey by the Katadata Insight Center (KIC) reveals that 12.2% of respondents were unwilling to receive the coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine. Of this group, 46.8% cited fear of side effects as their reason for refusal.

43.2% of respondents rejected the vaccine due to concerns about its safety. Another 25.8% doubted its effectiveness.

Furthermore, 23.6% of respondents were hesitant due to fears of being used as a guinea pig, while 22.9% believed alternative solutions existed to end the coronavirus pandemic.

11.7% of respondents refused the vaccine due to religious or belief-based considerations. Reasons such as distrust in the vaccine, disbelief in the existence of coronavirus, or fear of needles accounted for less than 10% of responses.

The KIC conducted an online survey from February 13-16, 2021, involving 2,458 respondents over 18 years of age who had not received and were unwilling to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
