Adherence to vaccination for various populations: survey results

Abstract

Voluntary anonymous questioning of groups of parents (n = 120), students of junior and senior courses of medical faculty (n = 250), оutpatient doctors (n = 45) concerning vaccination is carried out.Parents showed a generally positive (60%) attitude to vaccination, high anxiety (90%) in connection with the possible development of post-vaccination complications, as well as lack of awareness and inertia in acquiring knowledge about vaccination. The positive trend in knowledge among students from junior to senior courses is adjacent to the lack of practical orientation on vaccination. Outpatient doctors are cautious about vaccination, especially for children with chronic illnesses.
