Abstract

During the fight against Covid-19, the topic of vaccination took on particular importance, politically, in the media and also among the general population. It can be assumed that the health literacy regarding vaccinations in the population has changed during the pandemic years. For this reason and in order to support this assumption with evidence, a follow-up study of the mandates carried out in 2018 on health literacy regarding vaccinations in the Swiss population and the knowledge and attitudes towards vaccinations in healthcare professionals is to be carried out as part of the National Strategy on Vaccinations (NSI).
