Health workers need to get vaccinated for COVID-19 to protect both themselves and others. In their role as frontline workers, they have higher exposure to the virus, and they have a powerful influence on public vaccine attitudes and behavior. Therefore, health workers are a priority group for COVID-19 vaccination, yet many still have not taken the vaccine, especially in low- and middle-income countries. In countries where overall vaccination rates are still quite low, health workers may also face more barriers to getting vaccinated. Public health programs thus need innovative approaches to support health workers’ acceptance and uptake of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Although the population of Côte d’Ivoire has reached 58% of the vaccination target, there is still work to be done to encourage people with doubts to get vaccinated. The government of Côte d’Ivoire has authorized the Pfizer vaccine for pregnant women since January 2023 (Circular 00103/2023). Breakthrough ACTION supports the government of Côte d’Ivoire through social and behavior change (SBC) interventions, including research and monitoring to inform COVID-19 vaccination activities. The Breakthrough ACTION team, in partnership with the Department of Health and USAID, collected qualitative data from three sites to assess concern about COVID-19, perceptions of the current vaccine rollout, standards perceptions around vaccination, how misinformation and other factors influence vaccine uptake. This analysis focuses on a subset of data relating to perceptions of COVID-19 among pregnant women.

Since the emergence of the SARS-CoV2 virus and its first detection in Côte d’Ivoire in March 2020, the country has recorded 87,891 cases and 830 deaths (November 2022). The Ministry of Health has taken various measures to reduce the spread and impact of COVID-19, including the authorization of COVID-19 vaccines AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Sinopharm and Johnson & Johnson (J&J). With some ambitious goals to vaccinate 70% of the Ivorian population, understanding the drivers of confidence and uptake of vaccines is essential for the response to COVID-19 and achieving this goal.
Breakthrough ACTION Côte d’Ivoire conducted a three-phase household survey of knowledge, attitudes and practices to inform risk communication and community engagement.
