Despite being recognized as one of the greatest public health achievements, vaccines are increasingly under scrutiny for a multitude of reasons. "Parental vaccine hesitancy," an emerging term in today's literature, encompasses a wide range of concerns regarding vaccines and is believed to be responsible for decreasing coverage of many childhood vaccines. The threat to herd immunity posed by poor vaccine uptake increases the risk for resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases. Pediatric primary health care providers have an obligation to respond to the increasing prevalence of vaccine hesitancy by providing education related to vaccines to ensure the safety and health of the population. The purpose of this article is to examine the most common concerns surrounding vaccine hesitancy and outline strategies for pediatric providers to address concerns with parents in the clinical setting.
尽管疫苗被公认为最伟大的公共卫生成就之一,但由于多种原因,它们正受到越来越多的审视。“家长对疫苗的犹豫态度”是当今文献中出现的一个新术语,涵盖了对疫苗的广泛担忧,并且被认为是许多儿童疫苗接种覆盖率下降的原因。疫苗接种率低对群体免疫构成的威胁增加了疫苗可预防疾病卷土重来的风险。儿科初级医疗保健提供者有义务通过提供与疫苗相关的教育来应对疫苗犹豫态度日益普遍的情况,以确保民众的安全和健康。本文的目的是研究围绕疫苗犹豫态度最常见的担忧,并概述儿科医疗提供者在临床环境中应对家长担忧的策略。
