Storyboard Text
- Introduction There are several factors that influence an individual decision to get vaccinated, including vaccine-related misconceptions, mistrust in vaccine benefits, disease-related perceptions, and individual beliefs and superstitions. Therefore, public trust in vaccines demands in-depth community engagement and understanding of contextual factors affecting vaccine uptake, allowing for targeted effective health communication strategies. This study explores an in-depth understanding of reasons for vaccine hesitancy in the Springville community.
- Respondent 3:With that information, I suggest we conduct a qualitative research study tounderstand the views of the population on vaccination prior to the mass rolloutof vaccination. This will afford us an opportunity to address the factorscontributing to vaccine hesitancy.

WHO has declared vaccine hesitancy as one of the 10global threats to public health and one of the studies has found that some ofthe reasons for that are; mistrust towards pharmaceutical industries, resultsfrom clinical trials, poor vaccine promotion, misinformation from social mediaand the fear of getting ill or side effects from the vaccine
- Respondent 1:According to the CCDH reports, the social media accounts held by anti-vaxxershave increased followers by at least 7.8 million people since 2019. So we mightface a challenge with vaccine hesitancy.
