Abstract

Routine vaccination/immunization is intrinsic to the Primary Health Care practice throughout Brazil. For the past few years, the country has faced issues such as the fall and heterogeneity of vaccination uptake rates, motivated by different causes, one of which is vaccine hesitancy. This perspective article intends to offer Primary Health Care professionals another look at the phenomenon of vaccine hesitancy, with multiple and context-specific lenses, which allow them to approach the theme and understand it in its complexity.
