A Social Weather Station (SWS) survey released on Thursday, Jan. 20 showed that fewer adult Filipinos were unwilling to get vaccinated against Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19).
According to the poll conducted in December 2021, from 18 percent in September, 21 percent in June and 33 percent in May, the number of adult Filipinos who did not want to get inoculated against the disease is down to only 8 percent— 1 percent would probably not get the vaccine while 7 percent would surely not get jabbed.
The survey also noted vaccine skepticism declined in all areas of the country. From 7 percent, it reduced to 4 percent in Metro Manila; from 15 percent to 8 percent in Balance Luzon; from 24 percent to 15 percent in Visayas; and from 25 percent to 8 percent in Mindanao.
Moreover, the same poll determined that 50 percent of adult Filipinos received at least one dose of Covid-19 vaccine— 38 percent received two doses, while 13 percent got one dose.
As of Thursday, Jan. 20, the total number of cases in the country has reached 3,324,478 after 31,173 new cases were confirmed.
