How are parents viewing child vaccination in your region?
The misconception regarding vaccinations is something to be addressed.
How are doctors and health care system is addressing this issue and what are the root causes of apprehension regarding this?
It's an issue that doesn't tell us too much new. There's always been idiots who ignore official advice, and pursue some misconceived idea of self-interest at the expense of other.
What is new is the context: the fake news, certain dangerous doctors, idiot support groups, weak governance, and the like. Too much of this matter is tripe. People need punishing, fake news needs revealing and destroying, bad doctors need disbarring. Government's must take control and the lead. The families of damaged children should sue the idiots. Adults who behave like children should not be allowed to make "adult" decisions!

Indeed a challenging issue in public health and pediatrics.
Unfortunately, lack of knowledge is very frequent as well as myths.
Please see attached references for more information.
I see that the UK authorities are, today, calling for the social media sites to take down false information on this issue. A start...
