Corona Virus is a virus with the Coronaviridae Subfamily family, one way of prevention with Covid-19 vaccination. However, the program received various responses in the form of rejection of vaccination by some people in Timor Leste. This study aims to determine the factors associated with the refusal of Covid-19 vaccination in Grade II students of Nino Conis Santana High School. This type of research is an observational analytical study with a crossectional approach. The study respondents amounted to 80 people according to the specified criteria selected by the simple random sampling method. Data collection was done by questionnaires and in-depth interviews. Data analysis was performed using chi square and multiple logistic regression. Factors related to refusal of Covid-19 vaccination were knowledge (p = 0.000), family support (p = 0.011), and support of health workers (0.002) while those who were not related were age (p = 0.100), distance to facilities (p = 0.063), comorbid disease (p = 0.941), sex (p = 0.392) and perception (0.086). The most dominant variable is the support of health workers. In grade II students of Nino Conis Santana High School, with the support of poor health workers, they have the opportunity to refuse Covid-19 vaccination 9,538 times. Health workers should use strategies by adjusting the characteristics of each individual in approaching students who refuse Covid-19 vaccination to be willing to do Covid-19 vaccination.
