Gold,&nbsp;MD,&nbsp;on June 28&nbsp;at 3 p.m.&nbsp;on the Nebraska Forward program on News Channel Nebraska.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The state also has been aggressive in outreach through several online town halls, media interviews and&nbsp;a public service announcement campaign airing on radio stations across the state.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Vaccination in the state is the most critical component to control the&nbsp;COVID-19&nbsp;pandemic,&#8221;&nbsp;said&nbsp;Ming Qu, MD, PhD, epidemiologist with&nbsp;Nebraska&nbsp;DHHS and co-principal investigator of the survey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The survey&nbsp;of more than 1,200 Nebraskans was&nbsp;conducted&nbsp;under the direction of Dejun&nbsp;Su, PhD, associate professor in the department of health promotion in the UNMC College of Public Health&nbsp;and principal investigator.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Safety concerns, side effects and lack of trust&nbsp;were the top reasons given for not wanting to take the vaccine, Dr.&nbsp;Su&nbsp;said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The survey also showed that there is more vaccine hesitancy in rural areas as compared to urban; and there is more vaccine hesitancy among minority groups, most notably among Hispanics,&nbsp;he&nbsp;said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The results of the survey, Dr. Qu&nbsp;said,&nbsp;&nbsp;already&nbsp;are&nbsp;helping to inform&nbsp;targeted&nbsp;communication strategies&nbsp;public health officials will use to encourage greater vaccine uptake.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have a long relationship with the UNMC College of Public Health and have worked together over the years to address many issues,&#8221; Dr. Qu said.&nbsp;&#8220;The information gathered by this survey&nbsp;is helping&nbsp;us to&nbsp;understand public&nbsp;perceptions&nbsp;and&nbsp;quickly&nbsp;address those concerns to make an impact on vaccine hesitancy across the&nbsp;state.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;It&nbsp;paints a vivid picture of vaccine hesitancy in the state that we can then share with our federal partners and pivot when we need to address new concerns,&#8221;&nbsp;Dannette&nbsp;Smith&nbsp;said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The survey, which was&nbsp;part of the study &#8220;Community&nbsp;Assessment to Recommend an Optimal COVID-19 Vaccination Plan in Nebraska,&#8221;&nbsp;funded by the&nbsp;Holland Foundation&nbsp;and Nebraska&nbsp;DHHS, was&nbsp;mostly&nbsp;conducted&nbsp;between Feb.&nbsp;1 and&nbsp;April 15. It was done in partnership with public health districts and other stakeholders via the online platform&nbsp;REDCap.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The study findings greatly informed our understanding of vaccine hesitancy across the state and have helped to facilitate appropriate strategies&nbsp;tailored and targeted interventions to address documented barriers in receiving COVID-19 vaccinations&nbsp;in underserved communities and to promote health equity,&#8221;&nbsp;Dr. Anthone said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We are Nebraska Medicine and UNMC. Our mission is to lead the world in transforming lives to create a healthy future for all individuals and communities through premier educational programs, innovative research and extraordinary
