“…Costantini and colleagues state that “VL is contingent on personal circumstances as well as the broader societal context, thus contributing to shape intentions to vaccinate and ultimately vaccine uptake” [ 36 ], while Budiyanti and colleagues report that “VL is a balance between individual, community and also population skills in complexity system” [ 31 ]. In another paper, Ratzan and colleagues also note that “VL occurs when the skills and abilities of people align with the content, processes, and systems needed to access and get vaccinated” [ 63 ], which is also highlighted by Masiello and colleagues [ 55 ].…”

Background A comprehensive and agreed-upon definition of vaccine literacy (VL) could support the understanding of vaccination and help policy-makers and individuals make informed decisions about vaccines. Methods To shed some light on this debate and provide clarity, a scoping review was conducted to collect, summarize, and analyse available definitions of VL. Based on the findings of the scoping review, a new and comprehensive definition was proposed by a panel of experts. Results Fifty-three articles were included, and two of them appeared to be the milestones around which the other definitions were grouped. The new definition proposed by the panel of experts included not only the personal perspective, but also the community, population, and organizational perspectives. Moreover, due to the increasing complexity of the social context with respect to the ability to navigate, understand, and use information and services, the definition of organizational vaccine literacy and the attributes of a vaccine literate healthcare organization have been proposed. Conclusion The new definition can contribute to the overall paradigm of health literacy and its distinct component of vaccine literacy, possibly improving the implementation of public health strategies to allow vaccination to be understood as a social practice by the entire community. This study describes the conceptual foundations, the competencies, and the civic orientation to be considered when developing measurement tools devoted to assessing VL at the different levels and in different contexts.

“… 21 , 49 , 50 Discussions about the vaccine have often been divisive, leading to a lack of confidence in a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine, the most promising intervention. 51 Besides, possibly the intense discussion about the COVID-19 vaccine has led to a large amount of information overload, filling the public with different facts and contradictory information, labeled as “fake news,” 52 which has caused great controversy. Scholars are increasingly aware of the need to assess an individual’s knowledge, motivation, and ability to collect, understand, and use vaccine information.…”

This study is conducted on people in Turkey who had at least one dose of vaccination and it evaluates their differences in attitude in terms of health literacy, product judgment, the country of origin, intention to recommend and motivation to boycott. The 393 vaccine consumers were selected through convenient sampling and the data was collected through online questionnaires. The data was later analyzed by SPSS and AMOS. Normality, reliability tests and frequency analysis were conducted on the data. Afterward, a correlation was calculated using factor loadings to determine the relationship between the variables. The last was conducting the PATH analysis. Some consumers are prejudiced toward COVID-19 vaccines due to perceived distrust, hesitation, and lack of product information. Determining the prejudices of consumers, underlying causes and making inferences will provide more useful information on COVID-19 vaccines to health institutions, vaccine manufacturers, consumers and other organizations.
