BMC Public Health is calling for submissions to our Collection on Vaccine hesitancy. This initiative aims to deepen our understanding of the global challenge posed by vaccine hesitancy, which threatens the historic successes of immunization programs.
Vaccines have been instrumental in preventing millions of deaths and controlling diseases like smallpox and polio. However, the rise in vaccine hesitancy jeopardizes public health by compromising herd immunity.
We welcome submissions exploring themes such as determinants, communication strategies, and interventions to counter vaccine hesitancy. Join us in addressing this critical issue to sustain the positive impact of vaccines on a global scale.
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being and SDG 10: Reduced Inequality.
