Abstract

One of the greatest contributions to public health is vaccination. The majority of affluent nations have high rates of childhood vaccination, indicating that vaccination is still largely regarded as a public health policy in these nations. But there might be many individuals who are under-vaccinated. The rise of VPD outbreaks, such as measles, poliomyelitis, and pertussis, and under- or non-vaccinated communities have been linked in several nations. The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified vaccine hesitancy as one of the top 10 health hazards for 2019. Recently, there have been reports of vaccine reluctance in Saudi Arabia. Currently, the need for awareness campaigns about the benefits of vaccination is needed more than ever. In this review we will be looking at immunization hesitancy in Saudi Arabia, its definition, factors, and possible solutions.
