Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Study limitations include (1) lack of assessment on other factors that may contribute to participation willingness (e.g., monetary compensation, medical care provision, and vaccine administration mode); (2) cross-sectional research precluding causal inferences; (3) limited generalizability given the focus on young adults; and (4) bias due to self-report (e.g., social desirability). Study findings have implications for COVID-19 vaccine research and uptake. Rapid vaccine development has been called for, yet the high stakes and public interests involved in COVID-19 vaccine also require high standards of scientific and ethical practice. This include adequate ethical supervision, providing potential participants accurate, transparent, and accessible information about their rights, and risks and benefits associated with participation, and efforts to ensure recruitment free of coercion, socioeconomic inequality, and stigma. Public health efforts to reduce COVID-19 stigma, enhance transparency and public trust, and adequately protect marginalized communities may be critical to COVID-19 vaccine development and successful immunization implementation in the future.
