This makes preventive measures, such as vaccinations, critical in these persons to avoid vaccine preventable diseases (VPDs). However, little is known about the willingness and perceptions of PLHIV regarding these vaccines. Therefore, we explored vaccine awareness and hesitancy, especially during the recent COVID-19 pandemic.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The primary objective was to determine the uptake of the Covid-19 vaccine and other VPD\u2019s among PLHIV and factors affecting the same in Antiretroviral therapy (ART) centers in a tertiary care hospital in North India.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Research Design and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This was a cross-sectional study of HIV patients who attended our Antiretroviral Therapy center (ART).
