Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on people's lives around the world, including Indonesia. One of the most important efforts in controlling the spread of the COVID-19 virus is by carrying out vaccination. Vaccination can prevent transmission and spread of the virus so it can be an important step that must be taken. However, the success of the vaccination program also depends on the public's knowledge and perception of the COVID-19 vaccine itself. This study aims to analyze the influence of public knowledge and perception on the motivation to receive the COVID-19 vaccination. This study uses an observational quantitative research design with a cross-sectional analytical survey, as well as a non-probability sampling technique. The results of data analysis using the Spearman Rank test showed a significant correlation between the level of knowledge and public perception of the motivation to receive the Covid-19 vaccination.
