Presenty, people link hesitance to child immunization with the distance of the health center, availability of vaccines, the child sickness, busy mothers, health workers lack of interpersonal communication with parents. How can we measure the confidence in child immunization?
If you look into DHS data set, you will find some questions asked to respondent why you had not utilized health care, and there you will find qualify of facility, timing of facility, no health care provider or drug options. But still, as per my knowledge there are no direct questions why vaccination had not done. So you can use them as proxy. But it is depending on in which country you are conducting the study. Please go through the data base of the country.
other way you can conduct a survey and get your answer
this is completely depending on your study objective.
1. We should create awareness and importance of the vaccine in community through mass media,FGDS and there must be clear messages that how they can prevent their child to get sick from many diseases which can impact the child growth, school performance along with financial burden on the family.
2.There should provision of vaccines to the nearest health facility, for extreme remote areas we should develop a team who can give the vaccines at household level for those who are unable to reach the facility.
