Oenggae Village is included in the working area of the Korbafo Health Center which has the lowest dose II COVID-19 vaccination coverage, namely 41.76%. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the Health Belief Model (HBM) theoretical approach and community acceptance of the COVID-19 Dose II vaccination in Oenggae Village, Pantai Baru District, Rote Ndao in 2022. Subjects and Method: An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in Oenggae Village, Pantai Baru District, Rote Ndao from December 2022 to January 2023.

The independent variables are perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers and cues to act. Data was collected using a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by chi-square test. Results: Perceived vulnerability is high (OR= 3.91; 95 CI= 1.70 to 9.03; p= 0.002), perceived severity is high (OR= 10.59; 95% CI= 3.27 to 34.25; p< 0.001), perceived benefit is high (OR= 11.27; 95) % CI= 1.33 to 94.94; p= 0.009), perceived inhibition is low (OR= 6.22; 95% CI= 2.21 to 17.46; p= 0.001), and cues to act are high (p= 0.001) statistically significant effect on acceptance of vaccination COVID-19 2nd dose.
