Objective: The aim: Study of opinions and attitudes of citizens towards vaccination, identification of the reasons for the refusal of vaccination, the main psychological barriers.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: As a result of the analysis the main reasons for the refusal of vaccination were systematized into 5 groups. For practical clarification of the main reasons for the refusal of vaccination, we conducted a survey of citizens of the family medicine outpatient clinic in one of the Ukrainian cities. A total of 30 respondents took part in the survey.
Results: Results: The results of the survey were systematized, according to which it was found that today there is still a negative attitude towards vaccination, although some of the respondents who have a positive attitude towards vaccination are much larger in the context of today's pandemic realities. The main reason for not vaccinating is a lack of trust and confidence in vaccine safety.
Conclusion: Conclusions: To date, vaccination, including against COVID-19, is the only method of combating the pandemic. The identified reasons for the refusal of vaccination, according to the authors, are due to the lack of proper informatization of the population and the low level of trust in global and national medical institutions.

Conscientious Objection in Healthcare: The Requirement of Justification, The Moral Threshold, and Military Refusals.
J Relig Ethics
March 2024
Institute of Philosophy at Jagiellonian University in Kraków (Poland) and head of the Interdisciplinary Centre for Ethics at Jagiellonian University, where he leads the project BIOUNCERTAINTY funded by a European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant.
A dogma accepted in many ethical, religious, and legal frameworks is that the reasons behind conscientious objection (CO) in healthcare cannot be evaluated or judged by any institution because conscience is individual and autonomous. This paper shows that this background view is mistaken: the requirement to reveal and explain the reasons for conscientious objection in healthcare is ethically justified and legally desirable. Referring to real healthcare cases and legal regulations, this paper argues that these reasons should be evaluated either ex ante or ex post and defends novel conceptual claims that have not been analyzed in the debates on CO.
