Resumo
Vaccines are biological substances introduced into people’s bodies to protect them from diseases, forming an important mechanism for disease control. However, vaccination coverage in Brazil has been declining sharply since 2018. Thus, this study aimed to understand which socioeconomic factors most significantly impact Brazilian families’ adherence to vaccination Methods: This is an exploratory and descriptive field research with a qualitative-quantitative approach. Students from a military school and their guardians were included. Data were collected through an electronic form, tabulated in Excel, and statistically analyzed using RStudio software. Objectives: To analyze the relationship between socioeconomic factors and vaccination adherence among students of a Brazilian military school and their guardians. Results: The study included 170 participants, analyzed based on family income and educational level. The baseline characteristics indicated a relationship between higher family income and education with greater vaccination adherence. In addition to incompatible vaccination site hours, the lack of vaccine availability in nearby locations emerged as a relevant factor, particularly for the group with higher education. Final Considerations: The results suggest that, although guardians may show lower vaccination rates due to income or education factors, their dependents have maintained similar vaccination rates. Furthermore, incompatible hours at vaccination sites, the negative influence of the media, and concerns about adverse effects were the most influential factors affecting vaccination across all groups.
