"Globally

  • Vaccine hesitancy has been reported in almost all countries globally.
  • The most common reported reasons were risk-benefit (epidemiological and scientific evidence), lack of knowledge/awareness, and beliefs and attitudes.
  • These reasons varied by income level, WHO region, by country and over time.

In Canada

  • Vaccine hesitancy is well recognized across the country.
  • The most common reasons fall into the confidence determinant category, but access, complacency and concerns about pain are also important." - Vaccine Hesitancy Globally and in Canada (Section 2)
