Abstract

Information and communication technology (ICT) tools and services are revolutionizing the healthcare fields in many ways. One of such ways has been the sharing of information about vaccines to encourage their acceptance and adoption. The COVID-19 Vaccines Hesitancy Project (hereafter called the Project) was completed at one of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in the United States of America (USA). The researchers investigated through literature and secondary data the issues that continue to cause inequities and fuel vaccine hesitancies among different populations, particularly minority populations as well as the use of various ICT tools and services to better educate society for acceptance and adoption.
