Knowledge, risk perception and uptake of Covid-19 vaccination among internally displaced persons in complex humanitarian emergency setting, Northeast Nigeria
This study revealed gaps in COVID-19 knowledge, risk perception, and vaccination uptake but demonstrated a significant relationship between risk perception and COVID-19 preventive practices. Health education and risk communication should be intensified to improve knowledge, elicit stronger risk perception, and enhance COVID-19 preventive practices
Barriers and facilitators to hepatitis B birth dose vaccination
Nigeria is estimated to have the largest number of children worldwide, living with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the leading cause of liver cancer.
