Overcoming vaccine hesitation requires a clear message
The same fact-based approach that worked in the first year of the pandemic could now work. In particular, the number one reason people worry about vaccination is because they fear safety.In Herald According to a survey, 50% of people who hesitate say they are worried about side effects.
Unfortunately, public confidence was shaken when the Australian Immunotechnology Advisory Group changed its advice in April, urging people under the age of 50 to switch to non-AstraZeneca vaccines such as Pfizer. syndrome. This was done in addition to the early results of clinical trials that found AstraZeneca to be less effective than Pfizer and other mRNA-style vaccines. In fact, more complete evidence these days shows that AstraZeneca produces almost as strong immunity as other AstraZeneca and also provides complete protection from serious illness. It’s not a second-rate vaccine.
The government should focus on reassuring people that the risk of blood clots from the AstraZeneca vaccine offered by most Australians is very low. The problem is realistic, but very rare. Of the 2.1 million people who shot AstraZeneca in Australia, so far there have been only 20 cases and one tragic death. Doctors are good at identifying and treating cases when they occur.

Medical professionals in particular play a role here. Former Deputy Chief Medical Officer Nick Coatsworth complains that “a hardcore lump of activist doctors” has undermined health response by inflating risks and problems. Physicians need to explain the risks and benefits in a measured way. They should balance the small risk from the vaccine with the huge risk of COVID-19.
Governments also need to sell the benefits of reaching higher levels of vaccination more boldly. Prime Minister Scott Morrison seemed to question whether vaccination was sufficient to safely open the border this week.
However, a British study found that a single dose of AstraZeneca not only protects itself, but is at least 67% less likely to infect others.
Anthony Fauci, US President’s Chief Health Adviser, said that vaccination “will be a dead end for the virus.”
The new vaccine provides Australia and the world a way out of this crisis. Governments, health care workers, the media and the general public must ensure that public trust is maintained.
