ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) - The Alaska Department of Health and Social Services released results from a statewide COVID-19 vaccine survey Thursday.
A bulletin from the Section of Epidemiology noted, “As Alaska’s vaccination rate has slowed, public health and medical professionals seek to further understand motivations and barriers to vaccination, as well as the types of questions and concerns Alaskans have about COVID-19 vaccines.”
More than half of survey participants said they had already been vaccinated or had booked a COVID-19 vaccine appointment while other respondents said they would definitely not be getting vaccinated, but Alaska Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anne Zink said close to 25% identified themselves as hesitant but open to learning more.
