Sumario:INTRODUCTION: We evaluated uptake and factors associated with COVID‐19 vaccination among health workers (HWs) in Azerbaijan. RESULTS: Among 1575 HWs, 73% had received at least one dose, and 67% received two doses; all received CoronaVac. Factors associated with vaccination uptake included no previous COVID‐19 infection, older age, belief in the vaccine's safety, previous vaccination for influenza, having patient‐facing roles and good or excellent health by self‐assessment. CONCLUSION: These findings could inform strategies to increase vaccination uptake as the campaign continues.
