“…Validated studies in vaccine hesitancy [ 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 ] focus primarily on confidence in vaccines and science/medicine and have stated that it plays a role in explaining vaccination behavior. Confidence “is defined as trust in (i) the effectiveness and safety of vaccines, (ii) the system that delivers them, including the reliability and competence of the health services and health professionals, and (iii) the motivations of policymakers who decide on the need for vaccines” [ 92 ] (p. 2).…”

“…The aVHS has already been used in the survey from different countries. A study in India investigated COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy, psychosocial aspects, measures, and individual-level vaccine hesitancy interventions among perinatal women [35]. Zhang et al [36] carried out a study to assess if actions and vaccine decision-making could contribute to the worldwide spread of infectious diseases, through internet-based surveys from people living in the United States, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and India.…”

“…5 Other possible explanations include a lack of screening for COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy, non-availability of feasible and effective psychosocial interventions, and policymakers' or stakeholders' failure to recognize the need for individual-level intervention in COVID-19 vaccinations. 5,6 On the contrary, the published literature is in favor of delivering an effective brief psychosocial intervention to address the concerns or myths related to influenza vaccine hesitancy. 10 Based on our findings, we recommend that there is a need to develop and implement psychosocial interventions (e.g., policy and community, organization, individual/interpersonal) to address these factors in existing maternal child health programs at different levels (Figure 1).…”
