Despite the availability of multiple safe vaccines, vaccine hesitancy may present a challenge to successful control COVID-19 pandemic. As with many human behaviors, people's acceptance be affected by their beliefs about whether others will accept (i.e., descriptive norms). However, information these norms have different effects depending on actual norm, baseline beliefs, and relative importance conformity, social learning, free-riding.Here, using pre-registered, randomized experiment (N=\n) embedded in an international survey (23 countries), we show that accurate can increase intentions for COVID-19. These are largely consistent across 23 included countries, but concentrated among people who were otherwise uncertain accepting vaccine. Providing normative communications partially corrects individuals' underestimation how other results suggest presenting widespread growing vaccines helps vaccination intentions.

And this association stronger for those are subjectively less healthy. Between trust-depression link at individual level more "fragile" states. These findings robust to host confounders including experienced anxiety stemming from COVID-19. Discussion: During novel coronavirus pandemic, provides significant health buffer adults.
