This open access book examines psychology and vaccination, vaccination hesitancy. It is clear that eagerness to vaccinate or not is not only a medical issue, but first and foremost a psychological one. Fear, social influence, hesitancy toward medical misinformation, communication between patient and medical professional - all of these are psychological aspects that are tackled in this book. Why are they relevant? The COVID-19 pandemic was the first pandemic of our times. This book stems from this period and builds a practical guide for upcoming pandemics in terms of tackling the problem of vaccination hesitancy using evidence-based knowledge. COVID-19 clearly showed that eagerness to vaccinate and follow medical recommendations are crucial for combating pandemics. This book sets out to not only understand the past COVID-19 pandemic, but first and foremost provide psychological preparations for future ones.This book is for all those who believe in spreading the doctrine of vaccinations, educational programs, halting the spread of the lie that vaccines are harmful or unnecessary, and stopping the madness hiding behind demagogic slogans of personal freedom. We wrote it for those who want to understand the psychological mechanisms underlying skepticism about vaccinations and, above all, to boost the effectiveness of arguments in favor of vaccinations. We make no secret of the fact that we want to influence people's attitudes and human behavior in this way so that such books do not have to be written in the future. We would like it to be read by journalists and teachers, influencers and celebrities, politicians and local government officials of all levels.
