One of the efforts made to overcome this pandemic is to carry out mass vaccinations to create herd immunity. Anxiety about the COVID-19 vaccine affects people's willingness to receive vaccinations.

Results: The results of this study showed that 250 respondents (86.5%) received good support from health workers and 39 respondents (13.5%) received less support from health workers. Then 280 respondents (96.9%) did not experience anxiety disorders, 8 respondents (2.8%) had mild anxiety disorders, and 1 respondent (0.3%) had moderate anxiety disorders.
