Could be various reasons why that is, but there does seem to be hesitancy. At least according to this article, they are having issues with uptake:

I'm not talking about opening, just about the acceptance of vaccines in the indigenous communities.
The only uptake challenge the NSL article mentions is that the vaccination rate is lower among young people. I believe that will be the case almost everywhere in the world: the young always feel invincible.
