Abstract

COVID-19 has been prevalent worldwide since 2019. Increasing COVID-19 vaccination coverage is an im-portant measure to combat the disease. An online survey was conducted with university students and per-sonnel who were vaccinated against COVID-19 at a mass vaccination event to examine the factors promoting vaccination among young adults. The online survey was conducted with persons vaccinated at Okayama University from June 5 to September 27, 2021. Although the number of those who had fever >37.5°C increased after the second vaccination compared to the first, the vaccinated persons got more satisfied after the second shot.
