Unfortunately, many people in the DRC do not believe that the ebola vaccine is effective or safe (or that ebola is a real problem). [1]

Fortunately, general acceptance of vaccines in the DRC is quite high: "Confidence in vaccines in general was high and most respondents believed that vaccines work (899 [90·7%, 95% CI 87·0–93·4) and are safe (852 [88·5%, 85·4–91·0])." [1]
