ABSTRACT:

Background

Vaccination intent is defined as the willingness to get vaccinated against a COVID-19 pandemic in a situation where the vaccine is available at no cost.

Furthermore, there is little information available on the intention of people with chronic medical conditions about the COVID-19 vaccines in Ethiopia.

Objective

The study aimed to assess the intent to get vaccinated against COVID-19 and its associated factors among adults with a chronic medical condition.
