In 2016, the Preventive Programs Department and Epidemiology Department of the Public Health Agency of Barcelona initiated a line of research on vaccine hesitancy in the city that included the design of a questionnaire on knowledge, attitudes and beliefs in relation to systematic vaccination addressed to pediatric health care workers (nurses and physicians). The initial results showed a high prevalence of vaccine hesitancy among pediatric nurses and physicians in public centers. The focus of this workshop is to identify and address tailored interventions to these groups to resolve possible doubts related to vaccines as well as propose actions aimed at fostering their confidence.
