Abstract
The fight against covid-19 invites us to reflection and social change. The great scientific technological advance applied to medicine has made it possible for us to have vaccines that turn out to be our only weapon against covid-19. Which, as it is a relatively new, variable disease with no cure, is a cause for concern in societies and that has filled the population with doubts about the decision to get immunized or not. Since the vaccines became available speculation and information crossovers have increased, causing completely justified fear. Reason that drives many to refuse to receive it, making full use of respect for the fundamental principles of autonomy and freedom. While it is true, no one can force anyone to take a treatment. However, the common good and the advantages that we would have if we achieved complete immunization cannot be ignored. Governments have made their effort to guarantee public safety and protection. However, the information regarding vaccines must be timely,accurate and clear to guide us in making a responsible decision, respecting our rights and acting in search of the greatest social good.
