Enhancing public trust in COVID‐19 vaccination during ramadan 2022: A call for action

Abstract Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar in which it is compulsory for Muslims to abstain from eating and drinking during the daytime. The COVID‐19 pandemic posed additional challenges for Muslims as the crowded religious gatherings could give a new breath to the spread of the virus. Similar measures were adopted during Ramadan in 2021. The initiation of COVID‐19 vaccination across the globe in combination with the need to maintain personal protective measures against COVID‐19, result in new needs and challenges. At this juncture, Ramadan 2022 offers a growing opportunity to unite a global voice for solidarity, equal distribution of COVID‐19 vaccines, and tackling the challenge of vaccine hesitancy.
