In the process of vaccination against COVID-19, the problem of parents who do not want to vaccinate their school-age children has been evident. A conflict arises between two fundamental rights: the right to ideological freedom, privacy, and physical integrity of parents and minors who do not opt for vaccination; and the right to health of the rest of the children who attend the same school, provoking a social debate on the need to introduce regulatory changes that favor the mandatory imposition of vaccination in certain cases. This research offers an observational study through a cross-sectional design of a quantitative nature, in which one thousand people belonging to the education, health, and economy sectors from seventy-six countries of five continents have participated. The instrument used was a previously validated questionnaire: VACUNASEDUCA. It was considered essential to know the awareness of vaccination processes of professionals from essential social sectors. Therefore, the objectives were: to reflect on the measures of mandatory vaccination, to know the importance of teachers being able to demand a regulated vaccination card from students, to study the need for regulation by administrations of compliance with vaccines, and to analyze the importance of health education. It has been shown that women and those under thirty years of age are the least in favor of compulsory vaccination, with the health sector being the most defending of their demand, and with Europe with the lowest means. It is concluded that mandatory vaccination could be an acceptable tactical option to prevent high-risk situations.

“…The mean of education sector has been shown to be significantly higher than that of the health sector, with the economy sector in an intermediate position. In this regard, other work shows that, in some areas, education contributes to greater acceptance and recognition of vaccination [ 37 ]. However, it was shocking to researchers that the health sector was the least valued at raising society’s awareness of the importance of vaccination and regulating administrations’ actions for vaccine compliance, so research would need to be done on the reasons for this assessment and its possible impact to improve social awareness campaigns.…”

Globalization has led to what has happened in a certain part of the world having a significant and rapid impact on other places, causing significant changes in health problems. In the last quarter of the 18th century, the history of vaccination began, becoming an effective tool to prevent and control communicable diseases. This paper proposes an observational research with a cross-sectional design to study the importance of health education and vaccination in building inclusive societies. With a sample of 1000 participants from 76 countries, vaccine awareness and regulation were analyzed, considering the following variables: gender, age, sector, Human Development Index (HDI), and continent. The instrument used was a questionnaire (VACUNASEDUCA) developed for this research and timely validated. As a result, it is highlighted that the profiles of women, people under 30 years of age, education sector, high Human Development Index, and European continent are those that most value the importance of raising awareness in society and the regulation of actions for vaccination compliance. The consequences of “vaccine reluctance” are of concern in every country on the planet. Therefore, it is concluded that effective and evidence-based communication is key to allaying fears and promoting acceptance of vaccination around the world, building inclusive societies in which all citizens enjoy the health benefits.

“…En un principio, las primeras vacunas presentaban efectos adversos relevantes, incluso, en ocasiones, se evidenciaron decesos como consecuencia de la vacunación, lo que poco a poco dio lugar al surgimiento de grupos de detractores de las vacunas que se basaban en los riesgos de la vacunación, sin tener en cuenta los beneficios relacionados con la prevención de enfermedades (Salleras, 2018). En la actualidad, son muchos los argumentos que esgrimen los antivacunas para sustentar su posición ante la inoculación; entre los más importantes destacan: 1) argumentos filosóficos-religiosos, que suponen que las vacunas rompen el equilibrio de la naturaleza; 2) argumentos relacionados con la falta de eficacia, donde se sostiene que las enfermedades han disminuido, por los avances socioeconómicos y la inmunidad colectiva, y no por la vacunación; 3) razones rela-cionadas con los riesgos y consecuencias de la vacunación; 4) argumentos propios de la corriente ortodoxa de la medicina homeopática, que asegura que las vacunas alteran la predisposición genética del individuo a desarrollar y padecer ciertas enfermedades; y 5) teorías conspirativas que presentan la vacunación como un plan sistemático de los gobiernos para hacer daño a las personas (Fernández y Baquero, 2019).…”
