title: [The influence of the social factor on the response to a vaccination program].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To make an analysis of the different reasons for the response to three subprograms of anti-tetanus vaccination.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective descriptive analysis. SITE. Within the primary care field: in the rural clinic of Izarra-Urkabustaiz in the province of Alava.
  
  
  METHODS
  Inhabitants who live and/or work in Izarra-Urkabustaiz were allocated for the purposes of vaccination to three groups: 130 workers in a rubber factory, 116 citizens over 65 and 65 people aged 24, 34, 44, 54 and 64.
  
  
  RESULTS
  We have used the chi 2 test to analyse the qualitative variables and the confidence interval, in order to find the accurate level of response. We have established at 0.05 the threshold of permitted error and significance. The confidence intervals of the vaccination response have been 74-88 for those over 65, 54-74 in the factory and 4-21 in the "decade" subprogram. The difference has been very significant (p < 0.0001).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The factors which best explain such differences are those of a sociological nature, inasmuch as the level of acceptance and response is directly related to the amount of cohesion in the group.
