Over 13,500 adults under the age of 75 participated in the survey between 25-28 February 2021, on Ipsos’ Global Advisor online platform. The previous study was conducted between 17-20 December 2020.

Adults who strongly or somewhat agree they would get a vaccine against COVID-19 make up a majority in all but one of the 15 countries surveyed.
Breaking down the data further, the percentage of those who answered “strongly agree” has increased in every one of the 15 countries since a similar survey was conducted in December.
The countries showing the smallest gains are Russia (+2 to 16%) and the United States (+3 to 41%).
In 11 of the 15 countries surveyed, most plan to get the vaccine immediately or within one month once it is available to them:
