vaccination is the most effective method of preventing infectious diseases. The majority of parents (80%) understand that vaccinated children are less likely to develop severe illness than those who have not been vaccinated. More than half of respondents (60%) are not satisfied the quantity with quality of information about vaccinations obtained from the doctor.
