Detailed Description: Vaccination which is one of the basic elements of preventive health services is the most effective safe and cost-effective health practice in protecting human health and preventing infectious diseases Vaccination has been recognized as the most effective method for people to cope with infectious diseases Vaccines protect infants and children against many diseases Every year 1 million 700 thousand people die in the world due to vaccine-preventable diseases Odabaş Kuzlu Ayyıldız 2021

Despite scientific and historical evidence of the safety and effectiveness of vaccines and immunization some groups are still hesitant and reluctant to accept vaccines and immunization The concept of vaccine hesitancy was defined by the World Health Organization Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization SAGE Vaccine Hesitancy Working Group vaccine hesitancy is recognized as the delay or refusal to accept vaccines despite the availability of immunization services These behaviors include refusal delay or reluctant acceptance despite active concerns Etesaminia Derinpınar 2021 In our country since 2010 negative media news about vaccines started to affect families and vaccine refusal started to be observed As of 2015 the rates of vaccine refusal started to increase with the winning of the lawsuit on obtaining parental consent for vaccine administration While 183 families refused vaccination in 2011 980 families in 2013 5400 families in 2015 12000 families in 2016 and 23000 families in 2018 refused to vaccinate their children It is stated that if the number of families refusing vaccines reaches 50 thousand childhood infectious diseases that have been reduced or eradicated may cause an epidemic Çıtak Aksoy 2020 In this context scientific studies should be conducted on the effects and side effects of vaccines and effective communication and trust between parents and health personnel will be one of the most effective ways to eliminate hesitations about vaccination In addition the use of mass media and social media in informing and raising public awareness about the results of scientific studies on vaccines and their effects will enable rapid progress in the fight against anti-vaccination It is suggested that health personnel should be informed and raised awareness about the subject in order to make parents more aware of vaccine administration appropriate vaccine counseling services should be provided for families against those who make anti-vaccine discourses and educational programs can be prepared to increase the level of knowledge of parents about vaccines Argın et al 2022

Vaccine literacy encompasses the knowledge motivation and competence to access understand evaluate and apply health information in order to make the right health decisions in daily life Individuals with adequate vaccine literacy accept vaccination as a sine qua non of a functioning health system undertake the task of vaccine advocacy in every environment they are in and develop an uncomplicated system to ensure vaccine communication with other people Şahin Baran Aksakal 2022

In a study most of the participants stated that they obtained information about vaccines from the internet Mothers emphasized that they frequently used social media for vaccines and other health issues and that they were concerned about the information accessed and doubted about vaccines Çıklar Döner 2020 In a study examining the relationship between parents e-health literacy and confidence in vaccines it was found that parents confidence in vaccines decreased as the e-health literacy level increased Ceylan et al 2022 while in another study examining the relationship between parents health literacy and their attitudes and behaviors towards childhood vaccines it was found that parents health literacy level was not related to their attitudes and behaviors towards childhood vaccines Ertuğrul Albayrak 2021 In another study conducted with university students it was found that as the health literacy level of university students increased their anti-vaccine attitudes decreased Ertaş Göde 2021

In a study it was stated that the rate of vaccine refusal has reached serious dimensions that this rate will increase further if measures are not taken and that the most important of these measures is education Therefore it was reported that it is important to organize trainings on vaccines especially in family health centers that provide primary health care services and that active use of the media by health personnel on vaccination and vaccination is also required at the same time it was suggested that these trainings can also be done by meeting face to face with parents as a result it was reported that parents will be made aware of vaccination and a decrease in the rate of vaccine refusal will be observed Huseynov 2021

The aim of this study is to increase the awareness of vaccination with the training on childhood vaccine hesitancy given to expectant mothers by a nurse during pregnancy In addition it is aimed to evaluate the effect of the training given to expectant mothers on vaccine hesitancy and vaccine literacy
