  ABSTRACT: This is a survey which researched into the perspectives of Ghanaians about conspiracy beliefs of COVID-19 vaccination in Ghana. Most Ghanaians who believe in science and in the strength of COVID-19 vaccine in the country to help stop the spread of the corona virus disease have been vaccinated and are willing to convince others to be vaccinated. However, others hold varied views concerning the existence of the virus itself and the extreme adverse effect of the vaccine should they take it. Like some vaccines that have been used to curtail some ailments, the COVID-19 vaccine has been received with mixed feelings. The result of the study reveals that conspiracy beliefs of COVID-19 vaccination are not highly prevalent in Ghana.
