The 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is still ongoing and continues to have profound economic and social impacts worldwide. Establishing a minimum vaccination in the population is pertinent to curbing the transmission rate. However, barriers exist to achieving this threshold. Young adults represent the cohort with the highest incidence of COVID-19 cases. Assessing young adults’ knowledge and intent to vaccinate will assist policy makers in understanding the factors behind health decisions and designing effective strategies.
