Background: Evidence has demonstrated that vaccine hesitancy is rising, resulting in alarming figures on disease outbreaks reported globally. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the approaches for increasing acceptability and voluntary uptake of the COVID-19 vaccine in the Bamenda Health District, North-West Region of Cameroon. Method: A multistage cross-sectional, descriptive study design was used where data was collected at a point in time. Data was collected from the 12 health areas of the Bamenda Health District of the North-West Region. One hundred and five (105) healthcare providers in the 12 health areas of the Bamenda Health District were included in the study. The main instrument was an interview guide, to gather information such as perception of covid-19, vaccines, and vaccination. Data was analyzed using SPSS and results were presented on tables and charts. Result: The majority of the health workers commended that all the vaccines are good (46.7%) and most of them expressed their feelings about the COVID-19 vaccination as a good idea to prevent Covid-19 disease (81.9%). Some vaccines are easily available (62%) and the majority of these vaccines are free (87.5%). Conclusion: The clear and transparent communication of COVID-19 vaccines’ risks and benefits is an approach to increasing vaccine uptake among the public, a means of maintaining public trust in science.
