Vaccination, Right to Health, Public HealthAbstract
The epidemiological control of diseases communicable through the vaccine represented a great revolution in science and in the history of public health. The theme is related both to the orbit of the individual right to health, and to the collective right to health of all, since it is a disease preventive health policy.
Advances in medicine in research and development of new vaccines will be of no use if there is no collective adherence by society to vaccination campaigns. On the other hand, the State cannot only hope that this adhesion occurs in a conscious and voluntary way, at times, it will have to assert its leadership to protect the right to health of the community.
