Resumo: Although the advent of childhood vaccination is considered the scientific achievement of the twentieth century with the greatest impact on public health, the issue of vaccine hesitancy/refusal continues. The World Health Organization, recognizing the increasing risk of this problem and the need for special attention, has created, within the Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) on Immunization, a working group specially focused on the subject, the SAGE Working Group on Vaccine Hesitancy. A recent report from this group concluded that research on the reasons and degree of vaccine hesitancy/refusal is important and can help inform and refine the approaches to be implemented at both national and subnational levels. Within this context, Scientia Medica publishes in this issue a survey carried out in a region in the north of Portugal, which identified cases of vaccine refusal in all social classes and investigated their motives.

A Organização Mundial da Saúde, reconhecendo o risco crescente desse problema e a necessidade de uma especial atenção, criou, dentro do Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) on Immunization, um grupo de trabalho especialmente voltado ao assunto, o SAGE Working Group on Vaccine Hesitancy. Recente relatório desse grupo concluiu que pesquisas sobre as razões e o grau de hesitação/recusa vacinal são importantes e podem ajudar a informar e refinar as abordagens a ser implementadas, tanto em níveis nacionais como subnacionais. Dentro desse contexto, a Scientia Medica publica neste fascículo um levantamento realizado em uma região do norte de Portugal, que identificou casos de recusa vacinal em todas as classes sociais e investigou os seus motivos.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2018-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/scientiamedica/article/view/3280810.15448/1980-6108.2018.4.32808Scientia Medica; Vol. 28 No. 4 (2018); ID32808Scientia Medica; v. 28 n. 4 (2018); ID328081980-61081806-556210.15448/1980-6108.2018.4reponame:Scientia Medica (Porto Alegre.
