Description

Additional information

Description of data capture Social science research assistants (RAs) contacted the selected individuals via telephone voice call and requested their participation in the in-depth interviews. Interviews were conducted using a semi-structured interview guide that included the following topics: knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines; enabling factors and barriers to uptake of COVID-19 vaccines; and personal views on the future of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout programme. The interviews were audio recorded if the participant agreed, or notes were taken if the participant declined voice recording. Audio Interviews were subsequently transcribed. A senior social scientist conducted regular debriefing meetings with the RAs to review the completeness of the data and identify areas to improve on in subsequent interviews. Anonymized audio files were transferred onto encrypted password-protected computers, transcriptions and translations were done by the Research Assistants, and anonymized transcripts were transferred to a secure data server at the Medical Research Council /Uganda Virus Research Institute and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (MRC/UVRI and LSHTM) Uganda Research Unit. Data analysis process involved an iterative approach with two research assistants, under the guidance of a senior social scientist. The research team collaboratively reviewed and discussed transcripts to identify and reach a consensus on common codes. A codebook was developed based on a priori data categorization and emergent categories that came from the coding process.
