However, vaccine hesitancy remains a significant challenge to achieving vaccination goals. Hence, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis during 2021-2023 to estimate the prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among adults in India and identify associated factors. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed. Quality assessment was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist. Pooled prevalence estimates were calculated using a random-effects model. A total of 265 articles were identified, of which 21 full-text articles were included in the review. The pooled estimated prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among adults in India was found to be 28% (95% confidence interval: 27-29). Subgroup analysis revealed variations in hesitancy rates across different states, with higher rates observed in Jammu and Kashmir (44%), West Bengal (49%), and Maharashtra (39%). Gender-based analysis indicated higher hesitancy among males (36%) compared to females (26%). Among different study populations, medical students showed the lowest hesitancy rate (13%), whereas the general population exhibited the highest (34%). The findings suggest that vaccine hesitancy remains a significant concern in India, with one in four adults expressing hesitancy toward COVID-19 vaccination. Hesitancy rates vary across states, genders, and study populations. Addressing the factors contributing to hesitancy, such as safety concerns, lack of evidence, and misinformation, is crucial to enhance vaccine acceptance.</p>","PeriodicalId":13298,"journal":{"name":"Indian journal of public health","volume":"68 4","pages":"534-540"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142817858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
