As a global health service company dedicated to improving the health, well-being and peace of mind of those we serve, Cigna is committed to bringing the latest and useful information around COVID-19 to the world.

COVID-19 Vaccines

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists from across the globe have worked tirelessly to develop and test vaccines at an unprecedented speed in an effort to manage the ongoing crisis and end the pandemic. With numerous vaccines now approved, available and being administered to global populations, we have reason to be hopeful about a future return to pre-pandemic routines.

Cigna's Vaccine Study

We are actively supporting our customers, clients and partners with relevant and accurate information about the COVID-19 inoculation program across the world.  Since March 2021 we have engaged with over 39,000 respondents in China, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, UAE, UK and USA to understand their attitudes to the vaccination program and inform future communication.

Attitudes to vaccination continued to improve and vaccine hesitancy has reduced significantly.
