title: [Anti-flu vaccination: satisfaction study in a vaccinated population].
abstract: Most of the studies on the coverage of our country with regard to flu vaccinations reveal figures which do not surpass 50%-70% of the target population. In the USA, this figure only amounts to 20%-30%. There seems to be a certain "reticence" on the part of the population with regard to taking these injections or to continue the vaccination programs yearly. For this reason, we have made a prospective surveillance and monitoring study of the individuals vaccinated with the flu vaccine, which has taken in two flu injection campaigns (1988-1989) for the purpose of ascertaining the possible causes of this "reticence" and the degree of satisfaction achieved with the flu vaccine procedures. The study reveals the only 51.8% of the population receiving the vaccine was satisfied with the procedure, although 75.2% repeated the procedure the following year. The highest degree of insatisfaction is shown among women, and the customary patients who visit their physicians for every ache and pain, and those receiving the vaccine for the first time confuse acute respiratory symptoms with flu symptoms.
