The issue of vaccination hesitancy and refusal often makes headlines in the media and worries health authorities. However, a new study by Dr. Anat Gesser-Edelsburg, Dr. Yaffa Shir-Raz and Prof. Manfred  S. Green  from University of Haifa, School  of Public Health,  published in the Journal of Risk Research suggests that even parents  who are not "vaccine refusers" and who usually  comply  with the routine  vaccination programs may hesitate  or refuse  to vaccinate their children  based  on poor communication from the relevant  healthcare provider, as well as concerns about the safety of the vaccine.
