Uppsala Reports Long Reads – Convincing the vaccine hesitant
Manage episode 424661260 series 2749727
Fuelled by disinformation and an array of other cultural and economic factors, vaccine hesitancy is one of the greatest global health communication challenges of our times. But to craft the empathetic and tailored communication strategies required to boost confidence in vaccines, we first need to understand the difference between anti-vaccination belief and vaccine hesitancy.
This episode is part of the Uppsala Reports Long Reads series – the most topical stories from UMC’s pharmacovigilance magazine, brought to you in audio format. Find the original article here.
After the read, we speak to Uppsala Reports editor Gerard Ross about the dangers of polarising the conversation on vaccines, the role of social media, and how it all boils down to trust.
Tune in to find out:
- Why having questions or worries about vaccines is not the same thing as being anti-vaccination
- Why directing appropriate communication at the vaccine hesitant is more effective than attacking the vaccine deniers
- How cultural sensitivity and emotional intelligence can benefit pro-vaccine communication

The World Health Organization provides resources on vaccine communication in general and COVID-19 vaccines in particular.
