Abstract: As COVID-19 vaccine availability expands around the world, policy makers are working to ensure that global citizens are engaged and willing to get vaccinated. To understand drivers of hesitancy, eMBeD is conducting a global effort to measure attitudes and behavioral barriers related to COVID-19 vaccination. The survey, which measures vaccine perceptions and intentions, COVID-19 experience and beliefs, and behavioral dimensions such as trust, altruism, and social norms, is being conducted via a Facebook chatbot with a sample of Facebook users in each country, with representation across region, age, and gender. Results from 6 countries in the Middle East (West Bank, Gaza, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya and Tunisia; N= 41,823) have revealed that hesitancy is prevalent, with less than half of respondents indicating they intend to take the vaccine. Hesitancy varies across demographic groups, is high among health workers, is strongly predicted by social norms, and changes with the framing of the vaccine intentions question. Insights from the survey are currently being used to develop and test social media communication campaigns, and to conduct a second generation of surveys in countries where vaccine distribution is ongoing.

Topic: Political partisanship and physician prescribing of proposed COVID-19 treatments in 2020 (work in progress)
In early 2020, there were surges of prescriptions for drugs proposed to treat COVID-19, such as hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, and azithromycin despite a very uncertain evidence base. Increased prescribing persisted throughout 2020 even after RCT evidence demonstrated that these treatments were ineffective. The factors influencing physicians to continue prescribing debunked therapies for COVID-19 are unknown. A possible influence is political partisanship of patients or physicians given that these drugs became politically polarized via promotion by right-wing leaders and news media. In this preliminary work, I examine whether there is evidence that physicians are vulnerable to partisanship in prescribing decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
