• Abstract:

  
  Immunization is a public health intervention activity that contributes to reducing child morbidity and mortality; It is a low-cost intervention and helps with economic and social development. It is known that the health vaccination system is the best way to prevent deaths from diseases and increase life expectancy, especially when it comes to cost and effectiveness. However, population resistance to vaccines is known. Therefore, the study aimed to identify the main difficulties faced by parents and guardians in complying with vaccinations for children aged 0 to 2 years. This is an integrative literature review in the Medline, Lilacs, Bdenf databases, published between 2011 and 2021, resulting in 15 articles after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. After systematic analysis of the articles, it was necessary to include three thematic axes: Factors related to tutors; Factors related to professionals and delay variables. It is concluded, from the studies analyzed, that failures in immunization occur due to several factors involving philosophical, cultural, political issues, organization of services, lack of training in professionals, creating a deficit of knowledge and little qualification than is known, favoring myths and fake news. In this sense, it is necessary to reconstruct the dissemination of information in vaccination rooms, with a view to articulating technical knowledge and practical knowledge.
